BTW has anyone done an analysis as to how with zero campaigning and complete lack of interest in Haryana and Maharashtra elections - Congress still managed to put up a decent show?
Congress ‘Super 60’ brings 28 seats

Micro-level planning by the party’s youth wing reaps rich dividends.

@richa_singh Plus at least about 7-8 of the biggish leaders campaigned for their own seats. So managed to pull in about 8-10 seats.
@TusharA Ohhhh skimmed it and this is very interesting!
@richa_singh Yup. Shows the importance of smart local leaders and doing the grunt work.
@TusharA Ironically grass root worker not active was biggest shortcoming of Congress in recent years
@richa_singh true. Although what helped was that at least in Maharashtra they still have some sort of a structure that survives. As broken as it may be.
