After splitting seats with NCP, the Congress has released its list of star campaigners. For the election to be held on October 21, Congress has made a list of its 40-star campaigners campaigning in favour of the candidates. Party president Sonia Gandhi and former PM Manmohan Singh will be star campaigners in this election.

Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot, Jyotiraditya Scindia, Shatrughan Sinha will also be seen campaigning in favour of Congress candidates. The Congress, which once had a strong presence in Maharashtra, could not establish its feet after the BJP came to power. In the 2014 assembly elections, the Congress was able to win only 42 seats out of a total of 288. The party had to settle for one seat in the 2019 general election.
