Nowadays, the grand old, Congress party is battling with the financial crisis. Congress does not have enough money to challenge Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party in Lok Sabha Election in 2019. In the last five months, the Congress leadership has stopped sending necessary funds to run its offices in many states. Many Congress office bearers of this matter told on the condition of keeping the name confidential that Congress has asked its leaders to raise money for the party and cut spending.

According to a media report, the Congress's social media in-charge Divya Spandana Ramya said, "We do not have money. We have less money coming from the electoral bond than BJP. "The election bundle is a news transparent way to donate money to political parties. The Congress does not have any money as per the requirement.

It is unquestionable that PM Modi will be the most popular face in Lok Sabha elections in the year 2019. Congress is now occupied in only two states, in 2013, it was governing 15 states.

Supporters far away from defeat: Earlier this year, the big leaders of the Congress could not have been able to lead the elections in the eastern state only due to lack of money due to lack of money, the party could not book tickets for them. was. This is the reason that the propaganda of the party in Tripura, Nagaland and Meghalaya has been very low compared to the BJP. A party official said that the reason for this misery of the party is that due to the defeat, our supporters have started getting away from us. Now to deal with this crisis, besides the expense of travel, the expenses of the guests coming to the party offices are also being deducted.

Rising expenditure led problem increase: The Congress has raised a quarterly fund in the fiscal year ending March 2017 compared to the BJP. The BJP has got a donation of around Rs 65,317 crore in this period. These earnings have seen an increase of about 81 percent compared to last year.
