Congress has geared up for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. Rahul Gandhi, who has been traveling from village to village through Bharat Jodo Yatra, is going to contest the elections with some promises.
This time Congress can open the box of promises in the election manifesto. This time the party will focus on policy issues in its Nyay Sankalp Patra.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is currently on his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra from Manipur to Mumbai. He has not held any post in the party since stepping down as party president following the defeat in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. The line he adopts becomes the official line of the party, this fact is not hidden from anyone.
Party communication officer Jairam Ramesh, close to Congress General Secretary Rahul, has said that he will focus on 5 judges in his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra. There are full indications that this is going to be the base of the Congress Party before its formal manifesto.
In every manifesto of the Congress Party since the last Lok Sabha elections Slogans for women's justice elections have been seen. This benefited the party in some elections and proved ineffective at times.
It is believed that in the name of women's justice, the Congress Party may announce some financial assistance for women. In some states, it has also got huge electoral benefits from schemes like Grihalakshmi.
Wherever he has formed governments in Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka and Telangana, he has benefited a lot from this promise. Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu government of Himachal has now announced to start this guarantee. Under this, he will deposit Rs 1,500 every month in the women's account.

He can also make promises like giving pension and fixed salary to the farmers, because these are the demands of the farmers organizations and the Congress Party seems to be supporting their movement in every way.

It may also promise not to allow privatization of railways or alleged privatization of other public sectors.
distributive justice
The shared justice that Congress is talking about is based on Rahul's idea of equal rights for the population. According to Rahul Gandhi, the promise of caste census is almost certain to be included in the manifesto of the Congress Party.
The Congress party can also be seen promising caste-based postings in higher positions among central government officials.
