On Thursday morning, Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi went to a hand pump and had bath there. Thereafter, he went to see the paddy fields and asked villagers about NAREGA work. He had a first hand experience of how the people of this country manage to get the drinking water. He also saw that how state government boasts of providing drinking water facilities to each and every household, but only on paper. Numerous government and non government reports have proved that majority of diseases are caused due to the consumption of polluted water.
Rahul Gandhi also went to paddy fields and saw the road built under NAREGA. In a country where majority of its political class belongs to villages but forget it once after being elected, it is not a common thing for a politician like Rahul Gandhi. He believes in doing things; he wants to see the ground realities.
Rahul Gandhi has tried to turn this myth upside down that politicians don’t care for villagers. Certainly, he has started a new tradition by staying overnight in villages.. It means that the interest of rural India can not be ignored for long. India can not move ahead without the progress of its village; without the electricity and safe drinking water being supplied to each and every village. Perhaps this is the true and actual message of Rahul Gandhi’s visit, both to our political class and government institutions.
