Mulayam and his party never fulfilled promises: Congress

Congress General Secretary Digvijay Singh slammed Samajwadi Party and said that it did not have the majority in Parliament to deliver on the promise by amending the Constitution. "I think Mulayam Singh Yadav must realise that giving 18 per cent reservation means amending the Constitution. Can SP, a regional party, with 21 members in Parliament, amend the Constitution"? Congress General Secretary said.

"He is promising but not delivering anything. It would have been better had he mentioned his achivements as UP chief minister," the Congress leader said. The Congress General Secretary said that he had researched the speeches of Mulayam Singh Yadav but didn't find even a single comment about RSS. "He not only took a person responsible for Babri mosque incident in the alliance but also made his son a minister in his government," alleged the Congress leader.

"When Kalyan's son was being made the minister, Azam Khan had no objection but now he has," the Congress leader added. "Mulayam always keeps a door open for the support of BJP," said the Congress General Secretary.

Congress (I) takes care of minorities as well: PM

Calling attention of the people to lack of development and overall bad situation in the state, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has said only Congress (I) – inclusive policy – could ensure welfare and development of entire people of Uttar Pradesh. “We've taken a lot of initiatives for the minorities' welfare and got good results,” said the Prime Minister while addressing a public meeting in Kanpur for the ongoing Assembly elections. As soon as Congress (I)-led UPA formed government at the centre it set up Sachhar Committee to look into socio-economic situation of the Muslims. The recommendations of the Committee have been implemented in states ruled by Congress (I) like Maharashtra, Haryana and Delhi. But Mayawati government has not implemented them in Uttar Pradesh. Congress (I)-led UPA government has also announced 4.5% quota for the Muslims minority community for reservations in government and educational employment. Scholarships for Muslims students have also been increased both at school and higher levels. Highlighting that other parties like BSP and SP have treated the minorities as hostages without doing anything for them, Congress (I) has urged the minority to vote it to power for its secular and progressive policies. Congress (I) has assured them it will continue to work for their welfare and would review 4.5% quota for increase in proportion to their population. This would help them to better their socio-economic status and to fulfill their aspirations in life like any other citizen in the country.

Congress (I) the best option for the people of Uttar Pradesh

Lashing out at parties like BJP, BSP and SP for having cheated the people, Congress (I) has said the people tried these parties during the last two decades but none fulfilled their expectations. BJP played with the people’s sentiments. Mulayam Singh Yadav played caste politics which benefited only 10% of the people and used musclemen to rough up the rivals. Mayawati’s BSP crossed all limits of corruption. All these parties had no vision for development; as a result the state is stagnating, said Congress (I). While Mulayam Singh Yadav opposed use of English and computers, Mayawati developed only parks. Mayawati stole money of the poor sent by central government for implementing welfare schemes for the poor. Fed up with caste politics of these parties coupled with corruption and backwardness in the state, the people are now realizing that Congress (I) is the only alternative and best option for Uttar Pradesh.
