In an exclusive interview with ETV Bharat, Kurshid remarked that Priyanka's formal entry, during the mega rally in Uttar Pradesh, has showcased the message of forming a clean government aimed at the welfare of the people and the country.
"Modi's black magic will not work this time and Priyanka's positive magic will attract people towards Congress. Though, are several small and big parties at present in the country, Congress undoubtedly is the largest party, when we talk about the national front. Even if Congress is facing one of the worst times today, we have 44 members in Lok Sabha and the leader of the opposition hails from the Congress party," he added.
Kurshid further said that there was positive energy flowing among party workers after Priyanka's entry, as many of them have been anticipating the move for several years. "She (Priyanka) has the thinking style of Indira Gandhi which has reflected in her works and hence, the results will be obvious the way it was for Indira Ji," he stated.
Adding into it he claimed that, Priyanka Gandhi's great launch of 'Mission UP' had influenced the political scenario of the entire country and the Congress party was moving forward with other non-BJP parties to remove the present government with the intention of forming an honest government in Delhi.
"But now, her faith is upon us (party leaders and cadres) and it is our responsibility to cooperate with her on every step with hard work and unity," he asserted.
Elucidating on Congress President Rahul Gandhi's plan to gather all the non-BJP parties via the rally organised in UP, Kurshid said that, though, everyone could not participate due to various reasons, all of them would work together in order to defeat BJP.
He further opined that, alliances, which were not possible earlier, were being formed owing to the neutrality and Congress party was happy with both the entities - those joining the grand alliance and others who have refrained themselves.
When asked about the rumours, over the difference of opinions among the parties, Kurshid said that, some people get sensitive over every issue and it was not right.
Reacting on the Robert Vadra controversy, he said, "Rahul Gandhi has already said that Congress is not scared about the probe. They can continue the probe, but they also have to answer our questions. We have not done anything wrong and if someone is bringing any allegations, we can question on this. We will fight against this. We will play in front foot and not on backfoot," he said quoting the Congress President.
