Sharing some details about the ‘job calendar’ on the Koo app, the party wrote, ‘A job calendar will be created in which the date of examination, interview, appointment will be mentioned for each recruitment. The appointment will take place within six months from date to publication of vacancy’. The Congress has also mentioned that recruitment drives will be conducted to fill one lakh posts in the police department. For aspiring doctors, job notification will be released for 6000 posts.

 

Releasing the manifesto, party leader Rahul Gandhi thanked party leaders that they are fighting the election with all might. ‘You are fighting for an ideology, you are fighting for UP’s future’, he tweeted.
