Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday (July 26, 2025) assured the district unit chiefs of his party in Gujarat that their opinions will be taken into account while selecting poll candidates.

Mr. Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, during his address at the Congress' district presidents' training camp under the 'Sangathan Sujan Abhiyan' (campaign to strengthen the party organisation), also slammed the Election Commission for being "biased" and asserted it was important to defeat the BJP in its "main base" of Gujarat.
