Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav's directive to party workers in the 17 seats where Congress is contesting in Uttar Pradesh has been working as a team to ensure the victory of "INDIA bloc candidates" in the high-profile seats of Amethi and Rae Bareli. The SP-Congress alliance, which failed to take off in the 2017 assembly polls, is now working as a "declared alliance," with workers more enthused and committed to ensuring that INDIA bloc candidates Rahul Gandhi in Rae Bareli and Kishori Lal Sharma in Amethi score big wins.
