One million cadres expected to attend Nov 1 "Vote Bachao - Desh Bachao" Delhi rally-- Venugopal

Jaipur, Oct 25 (UNI) Against the backdrop of demand for postponement of November 1 rally in Delhi, the Congress has set target to draw 1 million cadres - supporters of INDIA bloc - to the capital for successful conduct of the "Vote Bachao-Desh Bachao" mega rally, AICC general secretary (Organisation) KC Venugopal said today.
Talking to the media here this afternoon, he indicated that about 1 lakh party workers would reach New Delhi the next Sunday to attend the rally from Rajasthan alone. Massive efforts have been made for mobilising support for the rally and making all possible arrangements for taking the participants for raising voice for the cause of the nation.
This rally is neither for serving the cause of the Congress nor that of any other INDIA bloc parties, rather, the rally is being held to uphold the cause of the nation, to protect the right to vote of every citizen and in that way to foil the threats to the democracy," the sitting Lok Sabha member and a former Rajya Sabha MP from Rajasthan said.
Venugopal asserted that the nationwide mass movement, which has been run by the constituent parties has made good impact as the Election Commission of India (ECI) has taken some reformative and some corrective steps, but core issue and main demand were still unsettled.
Earlier in the day, Venugopal reviewed the organisational preparations for the the rally at a high-level meeting of the party at the Constitution Club of Rajasthan here. Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, AICC general secretary and former Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot, the party state unit in-charge and former Punjab Deputy Chief Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa, LoP Rajasthan Tika Ram Jully and the party state president Govind Singh Dotasra and other senior party functionaries participated in the meeting.
Dotasra also assured the party central leadership that more than 1 lakh persons would participate in the rally from Rajasthan.
