While the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) plans to organise Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rally a few days before Mumbai polls, the Congress Party unit in the city is trying hard to get Priyanka Gandhi to hold rallies to counter PM Modi's impact. Naseem Khan, vice president of Maharashtra Congress and the ex-minister told DNA that they had already given the proposal to All India Congress Committee (AICC) for the road show of Priyanka Gandhi in Mumbai. "We have not yet received the final dates. We wish to have the road show of Priyanka Gandhi in all six Lok Sabha constituencies. She is currently tied up with her responsibility in Uttar Pradesh but we are confident to get her in Mumbai," said Khan. "Priyanka Gandhi road-show will be a major boost to our party cadre. People also love to watch Priyanka Gandhi's speeches. She is mesmerising personality," Congress leader said. Another senior Congress leader said that Priyanka Gandhi had not yet campaigned outside of Uttar Pradesh except for their women wing party president Sushmita Sen in Assam. A political observer said that the Congress has a slight edge in the three Lok Sabha seats out of six in Mumbai. "Former Mumbai Congress president Sanjay Nirupam in Mumbai North West, Eknath Gaikwad Mumbai South Central and Urmila Matondkar in North Mumbai are trying hard to wrestle the seats from the sitting member of parliaments from the incumbent government. If Raj Thackeray rallies and Priyanka Gandhi road show happens in Mumbai in the last lap of the campaign, then these remaining three seats could come in Congress-NCP's kitty," said a political observer. Sources in MNS said that Raj Thackeray will also hold one campaign rally for Urmila and Sanjay Dina Patil in suburbs while another for Milind Deora in South Mumbai to nullify the PM Modi rally effect.
