Will 2019 be a battle of BJP's nationalism vs Congress's populism?

Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday said that a "surgical strike" on poverty will be carried out through minimum income guarantee "nyuntam aay yojana (NYAY)", as promised by him if his party is voted to power at the Centre.
Accusing BJP of adopting an anti-poor approach, Gandhi said that the ruling party at the Centre wanted to "destroy the poor", while Congress wants to "destroy poverty".
