People who work for Congress think Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is the hardest-working person.
She has been running the seven-phase election campaign in Uttar Pradesh for 45 days.
Priyanka Gandhi held the most rallies and roadshows during the election campaign, even though exit polls didn’t predict well for the grand old party.

She did this to help her party’s polling chances.
Yogi Adityanath, the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, had almost as many rallies and roadshows as Priyanka Gandhi, the Indian prime minister’s daughter, did.
Priyanka Gandhi held 209 rallies and roadshows, closely followed by Mr Adityanath’s 203. This was based on information from party offices.
During the high-octane fight for UP, Chief Minister Adityanath scoured the state for 203 rallies and roadshows to help his party stay in charge.
With Akhilesh Yadav as the opposition’s face for the candidate for chief minister, he held 131 of them in different parts of the state.
There were a lot of rallies held by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Union Home Minister, Amit Shah.
The party’s slogan “aayenge to Yogi hi” was pushed hard by both of them (Yogi alone will come back).
Even though Modi had a lot on his plate, he spoke at 28 rallies and roadshows during the seven-phase election in the politically crucial state of Uttar Pradesh.
When the election ended on March 5, the PM even spent the night in Varanasi, representing the Lok Sabha.
He finished his campaign with a rally in the village of Khajuri, where he lived.
When the BJP won the state of Uttar Pradesh in 2017, Amit Shah was the mastermind behind the victory.
He held 54 rallies and roadshows for the BJP and NDA candidates across the state.
During the 45-day campaign, Rajnath Singh, a Lok Sabha MP from Lucknow, held 43 rallies and roadshows.
JP Nadda, the president of the BJP, held 41 rallies and roadshows in Uttar Pradesh.
To keep the BSP’s hopes alive in the election, Mayawati went out and spoke at 18 rallies and roadshows in the state.
Her absence before the election led to rumours that her party was out of the race.
She led her party from the front in a bid to get back some of the ground it lost.
A virtual rally only bolstered her efforts by her mother and Congress president Sonia Gandhi.
They spoke for her party candidates in several assembly segments under her Lok Sabha constituency, Rae Bareli.
She didn’t do anything to help her party candidates in any way in the state.
In addition, Rahul Gandhi, the brother of Priyanka Gandhi, was only there to speak at two rallies, one in Amethi and one in Varanasi.
The BJP used many of its leaders from both the state and the country to spread Prime Minister Modi’s catchphrase “UP plus Yogi bahut hai upyogi” (Yogi is very useful for UP) to people in the state.
In the beginning, Prime Minister Modi, Home Minister Shah, and BJP President Nadda split their time between the five states to vote: UP, Uttrakhand, Punjab, Goa, and Manipur.
They all focused on Uttar Pradesh after the voting was over in other states, so they tried to get support for the saffron party and its allies, the Apna Dal (Sonelal) and NISHAD Party.
Keshav Prasad Maurya, the party’s face for OBCs in Uttar Pradesh, and Dinesh Sharma, a Deputy Chief Minister.
They went around the state to tell people that the BJP needed to stay in power to keep the state growing.
His party’s leader, Akhilesh Yadav, tried to do as well as the BJP’s best campaigners did in almost every way.
With Prime Minister Modi and other top leaders attacking him, Akhilesh Yadav tried to fight back every time they tried.
President Jayant Chaudhary was with him during the first two voting stages in western Uttar Pradesh, where the RLD had a lot of support from farmers and Jats.
During the election, Om Prakash Rajbhar and other friends helped out.
SP patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav also came out for the party in support of his son Akhilesh and to ask for votes for Lucky Yadav, the son of a longtime friend of his, in two places.
One was in Karhal to support his son, and the other was in Malihani in Jaunpur to ask for votes for Lucky.
When Mamata Banerjee spoke at a rally for the SP candidate in Varanasi, she changed her battle cry from “khela hobe” (the game is on) to “khela Hoga” (the game will happen).
There were no more votes in UP. People are now looking forward to the results on March 10, which will also be in Punjab, India’s Uttrakhand state, Goa and Manipur.
