Jyotiraditya Scindia Explains Differences Between 2013 And 2018

A week ahead of the elections in Madhya Pradesh, senior Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia indicated that the party stands a chance this time because of its greater unity. Asked why the party lost the chance to beat the Shivraj Singh Chouhan government in 2013 and what was so different this time, Mr Scindia said, "There is complete unity this time... leaders at all levels and the people know it is a 'do or die' situation". The assertion comes amid reports that the deep divisions within the party, one of the reasons why the Congress lost the 2013 elections, still persist.
