Voices of the poor go unheard in UP under non-Congress rule: Rahul Gandhi


While addressing a massive public rally in Ambedkar Nagar as part of his Congress campaign in Uttar Pradesh Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi said that the voices of the poor and amm aadmi go unheard in the state. Rahul Gandhi argued that the Congress is committed to serve the poor and underprivileged and a Congress Government would ensure development in the state.
“What did we (Congress) do? We came to you and asked about your difficulties. You informed that there are no jobs available for the poor in the villages. As a result the people are forced to go to big cities for jobs. So the first thing the Congress-led UPA government did was to implement MNREGA, to guarantee jobs for all,” said Rahul Gandhi.
Rahul Gandhi continued “Then we went to the farmers and asked about their problems. They told us that the doors of the banks are closed for them and many of them are being burdened with huge loans”. “The Centre took necessary measures to open the doors of the banks for the farmers and also framed a policy to waive off loan of the poor farmers worth Rs. 60000 crore. This was the biggest ever loan-waive off scheme,” informed thje Congress General Secretary.
“When we were making these schemes what non-Congress parties – SP, BSP and BJP – were doing? Mayawati Ji said that there is no need of MNREGA in U.P. The BJP asked us from where we will have the money for the schemes”, informed Rahul Gandhi.
“Why do they behave like this? They do not come to you. You daily put in your hard work and develop the country. But nobody listens to you” said Rahul Gandhi. “But I am here to listen to your grievances. I know that the entire country is progressing because of your hard work,” asserted Rahul Gandhi.
