As the battle for Uttar Pradesh approaches, political parties are going all out to woo the electorates.
Political pundits predict the electoral contest to be a direct battle between the Bharatiya Janata Party and Akhilesh Yadav's Samajwadi Party.
Undeterred by that forecast, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra appears determined to make a mark for her party in UP.
On Wednesday, December 29, Priyanka reached out to women voters through a Shakti Samvaad in Firozabad asking them to make their elected representative more accountable and steer clear of voting on lines of caste and religion.
