I just want to work for them. I am sure that they will stand by me."Matondkar joined the Congress after meeting Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday and later said that she is "here to stay".Asked whether she has any specific agenda or strategy to win election, she said: "I don't have any specific agenda.
Honesty is my only agenda. I don't have any strategy, agenda or PR with me. I feel people who have honesty in their heart and they know where they want to go then, most of the time achieve their goals."Mumbai has always been a fort of Congress and even in this election, it will remain the same. I feel if the entire Congress party comes together in this election, no one can stop us from winning."Matondkar said that the Congress party has participated in the freedom struggle and it stood for freedom. "I feel every citizen of this country has the right to make his own choice which is granted by the Constitution. I feel people like me should stand up, not just for themselves but for all of them."She said that she has blessings of all those who matter. "I have huge support of my fellow Congress workers and I am taking advice and guidance from the party high command. But most importantly, I need blessings of the people from my constituency."Mumbai will vote for all Lok Sabha seats in the metropolis on April 29.
