The Congress has shifted focus to matters related to governance amid mounting popular concern about the alternative to Narendra Modi. On Monday, the Congress chief’s focus at rallies in Rajasthan was the minimum income guarantee scheme Nyay, which the party has promised if voted to power. The Congress has tried to evolve a constructive narrative through its manifesto, but a sharper focus has emerged with feedback suggesting that people were concerned about the absence of an alternative. New publicity material the Congress has released deals with the concerns about a viable alternative. With a tagline — Congress Hai Na — it intends to assure voters on matters such as the farm distress, jobs, women’s security and the health and educational infrastructure.
