“People have the knowledge. I go to them to share their knowledge. But the leaders in UP are not doing so” said Rahul Gandhi – the Congress General Secretary – while addressing a mammoth election rally in Pilibhit as part of his campaign in poll bound Uttar Pradesh. This has been happening for the past 22 years, he added.
“The women and the youth in our country possess tremendous knowledge. But these leaders are not interested to gather the same because they are not keen for development,” argued Rahul Gandhi.
“They do not want to listen to you or solve your difficulties. They think that they can fool you by just showering promises on you. This has been happening for the past 22 years,” he continued.
Rahul Gandhi then commented, “The people are also responsible for this. In the last 22 years, you have been electing Governments which never bothered about the people”.
“We (Congress) also run a Government at the Centre, since 2004. We came to you and enquired about your difficulties. When we realized the problems of the farmers we designed a policy to waive-off the loans for them worth Rs. 60000 crore. We fought for the farmers in Tappal and Bhatta-Parsaul. What did the Mayawati or Mulayam do for the farmers? They grabbed their lands. When the poor farmers demanded adequate compensation, they received bullets. Mayawati is the Chief Minister, but she never went there. Mulayam Singh Ji now promises to help farmers but he never found it necessary to visit the aggrieved farmers. When I went there, Mayawati Ji and Mulayam Ji call me mad,” argued Rahul Gandhi.
“No farmers are against development. They are ready to give their lads for roads or any other infrastructure,” he quipped.
