Khandelwal slams Rahul Gandhi's 'Students' Echo' in Indore, says Congress relies on workers

BJP Madhya Pradesh chief Hemant Khandelwal used a recent rally in Indore to launch a sharp attack on the Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Students’ Echo’ programme. Khandelwal alleged that the event, aimed at college students, revealed the party’s reliance on its cadre rather than genuine youth support. He questioned why Congress continues to depend on its workers to mobilise students instead of building trust among the younger electorate. The remarks were made during a press briefing following the rally, where Khandelwal reiterated the BJP’s narrative that the opposition lacks a credible connection with the youth. No response from Congress representatives was recorded at the time.
