Congress will comeback, says Sonia

Opposition Congress President Sonia Gandhi yesterday said her party will stage a comeback as she attacked ruling Bharatiya Janata Party accusing it of having woven "false dreams" and people got caught in the "trap".

She targetted Prime Minister Narendra Modi government -- charging it with copying the schemes and programmes of the previous Congress-led UPA dispensation and taking credit for the same.

Addressing a convention of the party's women wing, Sonia, along with her son Rahul Gandhi, sought to reach out to women by promising a larger electoral role for them at all levels and making a strong pitch for reservation of seats for them in Parliament and state legislatures.

The Congress chief expressed confidence about staging a comeback. "May be the path of our struggle is a bit longer and we may have to work a little more. But if all of us work hard and do it together, the day is not far when Congress will regain its peak."
