Congress is facing a cash crunch

As per report, Congress party, perhaps due to a cash crunch, has been cutting down on its expenses since the last five months. In the near future, this financial crisis can undermine the potential of (alleged) indigent Congress to wrest the power from the Bhartiya Janata Party  in 2019 elections. Congress leader Shashi Tharoor has suggested that instead of getting embarrassed, the party should raise money via donations from the citizens.

बतौर रिपोर्ट, कांग्रेस पार्टी,  शायद नकदी की कमी के चलते, पिछले पांच महीनों से अपने खर्चों पर कटौती कर रही है। आने वाले समय में, यह वित्तीय संकट 2019 के चुनावों में भारतीय जनता पार्टी से सत्ता छीन लेने की (कथित) निर्धन कांग्रेस की क्षमता को कमज़ोर कर सकता है। कांग्रेस नेता शशि थरूर ने सुझाव दिया है कि शर्मिंदा होने की बजाय, पार्टी को नागरिकों से दान के माध्यम से धन जुटाना चाहिए।
