The Chhattisgarh unit of the Congress in a series of posts wrote about the roadshow on its social media handle.
"The enthusiasm of the people towards the roadshow of Priyanka ji shows that Congress has won the trust of the public. Every section (of society) is standing strongly with Congress and this time Congress is going to form the government again in the state with 75 plus seats," it said.
"..Our mothers and sisters are very excited about @priyankagandhi ji, they have full confidence that the Congress government will not only give them Rs 15,000 annually but will also give them a subsidy of Rs 500 on refilling of every cooking gas cylinder," it added.
The roadshow passed through Kotwali, Satti Bazar and Amapara Chowk before culminating on the station road.
