Congress’ Resilience and Ideological Strength
Reiterating his faith in Congress’ resilience, Vijay Wadettiwar asserted that the party would bounce back strongly. He firmly believes that the public supports Congress’ ideology and will continue to do so.

A Leader’s Loyalty

He highlighted the opportunities and positions the party has bestowed upon him, including contesting and winning four assembly elections, serving as a cabinet minister, and twice being appointed as the leader of the opposition.
Defying Speculations and Building Trust
Wadettiwar took a swipe at MLA Ravi Rana, who had speculated about following Chavan’s path.
