Rahul Gandhi: Ground reality of UP speaks for itself


Accusing Chief Minister Mayawati for having been playing caste based vote bank politics in the state for the last five years, Congress (I) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi has said roads in the state have pot holes, state of hospitals is pathetic, there is bribery in all departments and loot of welfare funds. In the name of schools only part constructed buildings are there without doors and windows not to mention of lights and fans.  There are no centers of excellence for academic and professional studies, said Rahul Gandhi adding that ground reality of UP speak for itself. There is no excuse for Mayawati to have ignored development of Bundelkhand which has been drought ridden despite grant of a special package of Rs 8,000 by Central government. Poorvanchal region has been reeling under encephalitis leading to death of thousands of people. Even for weavers community of the region Central government has sent grant while Chief Minister Mayawati have ignored these regions of Uttar Pradesh, said Rahul Gandhi.

Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi in Farrukhabad (U.P) Part 1


Addressing a Congress workers’ rally at Farrukhabad Uttar Pradesh on the fourth day of his second phase of the campaign for Congress, All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi said that the state can surge ahead only if the leaders think with long term vision. Rahul Gandhi promised that a Congress government will bring back the lost glory of Uttar Pradesh. Taking a dig at the performance of non-Congress Governments in U.P for the past 22 years he continued “In U.P non-Congress parties have been talking about caste and religion and not bothered about the poor. They cheated you in the name of God. They made God a commodity and sold it and behaved just as mere brokers. They do not come to you, listen to you or bothered about your future” he wondered.

So the policies with long-term vision are the main factor for development”.

Rahul Gandhi promised that a Congress government will bring back the lost glory of Uttar Pradesh.

They scripted the slogan sitting inside big bungalows. They did not realize the reality. The shining may be visible at those leaders’ houses who had coined this slogan but not the villages. And the people gave them a befitting reply by electing an aam aadmi Government of the Congress”, he added taking a dig at BJP and NDA.

While all other states are acknowledging that MGNREGA is the most useful policy UP Chief Minister says that the scheme is of no use. The reality is that the funds sent by the Centre under various schemes are being eaten up by Mayawati’s elephant in Lucknow. Normally elephants eat leaves and grass but the magic elephant of Mayawati in Lucknow eats currency".

Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi in Farrukhabad (U.P) Part 10

Addressing a Congress workers’ rally at Farrukhabad Uttar Pradesh on the fourth day of his second phase of the campaign for Congress, All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi said that the state can surge ahead only if the leaders think with long term vision. Rahul Gandhi promised that a Congress government will bring back the lost glory of Uttar Pradesh. But what did Mayawati do? He asked and quipped “when rich sell their land they get the market price. But in U.P under Mayawati Government if a poor farmer sells his land and asks for adequate compensation he got bullets and labeled as Naxal. In Tappal and Bhatta-Parsaul striking farmers were assaulted by the BSP Government. Mayawatiji did not go there. I went there, listened to them and understood their problems. The Congress led Government at the centre drafted a new Land Acquisition Bill. But some parties have been trying to block it behind the closed doors of the Parliament”. “She also did not found it proper to visit Bundelkhand too” said Rahul Gandhi referring his visit to Bundelkhand and the subsequent relief package sanctioned by the Central Government. Referring the news paper reports regarding the misuse of Bundelkhand funds he said “I read it in today’s news paper that some minister purchased tractors using the funds sent by the Centre under Bundelkhand package. We had sent Rs. 3000 cr for the poor people of Bundelkhand. But that went to the minister’s pocket” alleged the Congress General Secretary.

Rahul Gandhi: Mayawati govt doesn’t know plight of poor


Hitting hard against Chief Minister Mayawati for having come to power on the vote of the poor but thereafter forgetting them altogether, Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi said that she is responsible for the plight of the poor people of Uttar Pradesh.  Mayawati has no right or legitimacy to call herself as messiah of dalit or poor for she has been working against their interest. While recently addressing a public meeting in Badaun (UP) he said Centre has been sending funds for welfare schemes for the poor of UP. Instead of ensuring that the money reached the needy poor, corrupt ministers of Mayawati government have pocketed that money; thus Mayawati government has deprived the poor of the benefits of development schemes like NREGA, Janani Suraksha Yojana, NRHM. Mayawati neither meets poor nor goes amidst them much less visits their houses to share their concerns. Rahul Gandhi said, “Mayawati is sitting in Lucknow and people are dying in Bundelkhand but she thinks that everything is alright.”

Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi in Farrukhabad (U.P) Part 12

Addressing a Congress workers’ rally at Farrukhabad Uttar Pradesh on the fourth day of his second phase of the campaign for Congress, All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi said that the state can surge ahead only if the leaders think with long term vision. Rahul Gandhi promised that a Congress government will bring back the lost glory of Uttar Pradesh. Rahul Gandhi continued with his leader-aam aadmi theory and reiterated that leaders should go to the people to realize their difficulties. “Till a leader goes to the poor, stays with them, eats at their home and drinks water from their houses and get sick, he will not understand poverty,” emphasized Rahul Gandhi. He added that for those who travel by Helicopter feels that all is well. But they do not realize the reality. They sit in big bungalows in Lucknow and think that everything is fine. To prove his point he cited an example “I went to a hospital in UP where some painting and renovation works were going on. I went inside. There were no doctors, patients or nurses. Dogs were scampering inside. I asked them what is going on. They said that Mayawati is on a tour to this area and she will be visiting the hospital and therefore the renovation. As she was expected to take the road route so the roads were being repaired and the hospital building was being painted.”
