Rahul Gandhi has been praised a lot in the resolution of the Congress Working Committee. The credit for the increase in Congress seats has been given to his tours and his efforts. The resolution says, 'Former Congress President Rahul Gandhi should be remembered mainly for Bharat Jodo Yatra and Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, which he himself designed and led. Both these tours, reflecting his thinking and personality, were historic turning points in the politics of our country and it aroused hope and confidence in millions of our workers and crores of voters.'
It said, 'Rahul Gandhi's election campaign was single-minded, incisive and precise and more than any other individual, he was the person who made the protection of the Constitution of our Republic a central issue in the 2024 elections. The 5 Justices – 25 Guarantees programme resonated very powerfully in the election campaign. This was the result of Rahul ji's travels, in which he listened to the fears, concerns and aspirations of all the people, especially the youth, women, farmers, workers, Dalits, Adivasis, OBCs and minorities.'
