Congress President and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi while talking at big rally organized by the Congress in Punjab blamed the SAD-BJP Government for the bad state of affairs in Punjab. During her speech she asked Punjab's ruling Akali Dal-BJP alliance to explain as to whether development in the last five years meant adding seven lakh more poor families to the 13 lakh existing in the State.
Sonia Gandhi described the present BJP-SAD Government as the most inefficient.” During its tenure the State witnessed total decline on all fronts”, alleged the Congress President.
Sonia Gandhi charged the State government with failing to utilise more than Rs. 526 crore of the Rs. 5000 crore grant provided to it under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS).
“Is this the development you are talking about?” Sonia Gandhi asked.
“It is in your hands whether you want Punjab to progress under a Congress government or you let it decline further under Akali Dal-BJP alliance,” she said.
