All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi addressed a big election rally in Moradabad as part of his campaign for Congress in Uttar Pradesh where assembly elections are underway. He also repeated that he has come not for making promises but to fight for a change on Uttar Pradesh.
“We realize the strength of the farmers as well as their pain. We are aware of their hard work. So we went to them. They informed us that the doors of the banks are closed for them and also that they carry the burden of heavy debts. We, therefore, approved a relief package worth Rs. 60,000crore for them and opened the doors of the banks for the farmers,” said Rahul Gandhi, referring to the relief package for the farmers.
“Similarly we approved a relief package for Bunkars too. The state government in UP did not do anything for them. Is it not the duty of the state Government to help the farmers and Bunkars? When the poor farmers in Tappal and Bhatta-Prasual demanded adequate compensation for the land forcibly acquired by the state Government, they received bullets. Women were assaulted. Neither Mayawati Ji nor Mulayam Ji went there. But now they give promises that they would help the farmers,” said Rahul Gandhi.
