* Congress’ Nyay guarantees: The grand old party found its mojo back to some extent in the state elections of Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka and Telangana when it pitched guarantees to the people which clicked electorally.Now for the Lok Sabha polls, the party has strongly pitched for its 5 ‘Nyay’ guarantees aimed at ensuring justice for youth, farmers, women, labourers, as well as participatory justice.The ‘Nyay’ guarantees have been presented before the people during the Manipur to Mumbai Rahul Gandhi-led Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra.The Congress’ manifesto is likely to be framed around these guarantees and the party would design its campaign around them.Whether it will result in the party’s electoral resurgence, only time will tell.* Unemployment and price rise: The INDIA bloc, including the Congress, has been raising the issue of unemployment and rising prices of essential commodities.They have stated repeatedly that lack of jobs is the single biggest issue and have sought to corner the government over the issue.The BJP has hit back citing job growth and a fast-growing economy.The poll season would see intensifying debate over these bread and butter issues.* Abrogation of Article 370, CAA and Uniform Civil Code: These have been part of the BJP’s longstanding promises to the people.The BJP has and will continue to project its achievement of implementation of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, and the abrogation of Article 370 for Jammu and Kashmir.The party’s government has also passed a law on the uniform civil code in Uttarakhand as a precursor to its objective of devising such a law nationally.The Modi government has projected these actions to assert that it believes in the mantra of “walking the talk”.The opposition has slammed these moves as attempts to create, divide and impose uniformity.The debate on these issues is likely to get sharper and more aggressive in the poll season.
