Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge launched the party’s crowdfunding campaign, ‘Donate for Desh,’ in Delhi, urging common people to join the fight against unemployment and rising costs. Kharge contributed ₹1,38,000 from his salary to kickstart the campaign, emphasizing the party’s commitment to championing the rights of marginalized communities.
The campaign aims to bridge disparities and position Congress as a formidable opposition against a government favoring the affluent. Kharge highlighted that seeking support from the general public is a unique approach for Congress, emphasizing that depending on the rich could compromise future policies. The campaign encourages contributions from small donors, symbolizing collective efforts to address national challenges.
Kharge expressed confidence in people voluntarily coming forward to contribute, reinforcing the party’s commitment to fighting for the interests of the poor and marginalized.
