NEW DELHI: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday launched the party’s crowdfunding campaign here, asking people to join the fight against unemployment and rising costs.
Kharge donated a sum of Rs 1,38,000 from his salary to launch the “Donate for Desh” campaign in the presence of party leaders and general secretaries K C Venugopal and Jairam Ramesh and treasurer Ajay Maken.
“It is a very happy day that our party leaders have prepared an App. I feel this is the first time that the Congress is seeking the help of common people to build the country,” he told reporters after the launch.
As part of the campaign, the party will receive money from small donors, he said and added, “If you keep working by depending on the rich, then tomorrow we would have to agree to their programmes and policies”.
‘Donate for Desh’ अभियान, हाशिए पर रहने वाले समुदायों के अधिकारों को बनाए रखने, असमानताओं को पाटने और गिने-चुने पूंजीवाद लोगों का पक्ष लेने वाली, तानाशाही सरकार के ख़िलाफ़ एक मजबूत विपक्ष बनने की प्रतिबद्धता है।▶️ https://t.co/r4e7oDRJhN पर लॉग ऑन कर, अपना महत्वपूर्ण योगदान… pic.twitter.com/jb2HITzT2J

Kharge said the Congress is already working for the interests of the poor, Scheduled Castes, backwards and they have been helping us in the past too.
“Through ‘Donate for Desh’, we will work to take the country forward by taking help from the general public. Congress always got help from the general public. Mahatma Gandhi also got Independence for the country with the help of the people of the country,” he said.
People will in one or two days voluntarily come forward and donate, he said.
“We will collect donations from common people and join them in this fight. We can assure people that there is only one party which is fighting for the poor,” he said.
