Harish Rawat has been galvanising Congress workers while campaigning for the Champawat bypoll. Congress has fielded Nirmala Gehtori as its candidate for the upcoming bypoll.
Addressing a gathering, Rawat on Thursday said Congress will give a "tough fight" to the BJP.
"We will make it a tough fight for Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami. Earlier, voters were vocal about supporting the chief minister, but after our persuasion, they have gone silent and are contemplating what they should do," he said.
In the assembly elections held in February, the BJP created history by winning 47 of the 70 seats in the state but Dhami, who led his party to victory, lost Khatima seat.
