New Delhi:
Congress called for unity among citizens who cut across ideological and party lines to what it called “overthrow the dictatorial government” to save democracy.

“This is not the time for us to rest. Over the past decade under the BJP rule, the challenges faced by common people have multiplied. The Prime Minister refuses to address the concerns of the poor, farmers, workers, women and youth; instead, he cannot see beyond himself,” Kharge said.
“In such circumstances we cannot remain silent spectators. We must unite and overthrow this dictatorial government to save our democracy,” he said.
Sonia Gandhi asked the party leaders to maintain self-control and avoid going to the media with comments that could harm the interests of the Congress. The party has already released a list of journalists and media organizations with whom Congress no longer wants to work.
“We must work tirelessly and put aside personal interests.

This was evident in Karnataka where we remained united and I fought with discipline to achieve success,” said Kharge.
