Some of you were put in jail or detained but you did not budge and stood by the party.”
Stating that she was proud of them, Priyanka added that the cadre of UP along with the conscious voters of the state had played an important role in saving the Constitution of India. “I am proud of you and the conscious people of UP, who understood the depth and truth of this country and gave a strong message to the whole of India to save our Constitution,” she said.
