New Delhi: Congress in-charge for Bihar Shaktisinh Gohil on Monday said that the party will hold virtual rallies from September 1 for the upcoming state Assembly elections, and would focus on its "positive agenda".
Gohil informed that the party will hold 100 virtual rallies from September 1-21, and that senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi too would address rallies.
Speaking to ETV Bharat, Gohil said, that the Nitish Kumar government was a total failure as it did not do any actual service and was only indulging in politics.
"People are suffering due to both floods and coronavirus. The Nitish government has been a total fail. They're (BJP and JDU) happily indulging in politics, but have no concern about the people," he said.
Gohil said that the party would aim to reach out to as many people as possible and will talk about its positive agenda.
"We will have a positive agenda. In the rallies we will talk about the work we will do if elected to power. The same will be mentioned in our election manifesto," he said.

Gohil said that party would start off with a few rallies first, and then gradually increase the number. He also added that senior national leaders like Sonia Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi will also be requested to address larger rallies later.
On the seat-sharing issue, Gohil said that nothing has been decided as of now, and that it would later be discussed with the party's allies.
The assembly elections in Bihar are likely to be held on time in October-November despite demands by some political parties for postponing the polls in view of the COVID-19 pandemic.
These elections are being seen as the next big political fight between the BJP-led NDA and a combined opposition force.
