Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi lashed out at BJP for not going to people to realize their pain. He also reminded the people about the BJP’s ‘India Shining’ slogan during the Parliament elections in 2004. He also took a dig at LK Advani for undertaking a nation-wide yatra when there is rampant corruption in the states run by the BJP.
“BJP and NDA came out with a slogan in English – India Shining. They were in power for five years. But they did not go to people, farmers, labourers, talked to them or enquired about their problems still they believed blindly that India was shining,” said Rahul Gandhi.
“When media persons asked BJP about the origin of the slogan, their senior leader, who undertook a yatra against corruption, said that it was picked up from a TV advertisement, ” he said and added, “This leader did not see the rampant corruption in Karnataka, Uttarakhand or Madhya Pradesh when he was travelling across the country”.
“But Congress delivered its promise and formed a Government of aam aadmi. We gave you MNREGA, right to food and several other welfare schemes. We sent crores of rupees to U.P and Lucknow. But that did not reach you. This money is yours. It is you who develop this country with your blood and sweat,” asserted Rahul Gandhi.
“The youth in this state has the strength. They should stand up. Change Uttar Pradesh, change your Lucknow. Support Congress and elect all our candidates”.
“You have a Government in Delhi. We are ready to extend all possible help to you. Now free your arms and help Congress to form a Government in Uttar Pradesh,” concluded Rahul Gandhi.
