The Story in Brief
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will take part in the Pune edition of the party’s student outreach programme ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ on August 22. Maharashtra Congress chief Harshwardhan Sapkal said Gandhi would address women-centric issues at the event, though the venue was yet to be finalised. Gandhi launched the campaign from Kota, Rajasthan’s coaching hub, on June 17 to highlight education-sector concerns. He held earlier segments in Dehradun on July 17 and Prayagraj on August 8.
The Indian Opinion
Both the Congress and the BJP use student outreach as election-year theatre, promising solutions to education woes without detailed roadmaps. The Congress campaign ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’ has so far produced slogans but few fresh proposals. The real test will come when the party releases its manifesto, will it spell out funding plans for public universities or just repeat demands for reservation quotas and fee waivers?
