Congress Leader Rahul Gandhi in Saharanpur (U.P) Part 4

Addressing a mammoth rally in the Saharanpur district of the poll bound Uttar Pradesh All India congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi lashed out at Mayawati for the rampant corruption in the state. Rahul Gandhi alleged that whenever the Congress led Government at the centre makes policies for the welfare of the poor Mayawati terms it as a drama of Congress. He was on the final day of his five-day tour to Uttar Pradesh campaigning for the Congress in the state.
“Mayawati ji recently sacked some of her ministers alleging corruption. Half of her cabinet is in jail now. Why did not she remove them before? Why she did it after completing the five years term of her Government. Further she allotted the portfolios of the axed ministers to the most corrupt minister in her cabinet,” he alleged.
“Your people go to other states and help them to develop. Don’t the people of UP have the right to earn a job in their own state? Don’t they have the right to get their children educated here in UP? Don’t you need good hospitals, schools and roads in UP?” he asked.
The Congress General Secretary blamed the 22 years of non-Congress Governments in UP for the lack of development in the state. He repeated his promise that a Congress Government will bring back developments in Uttar Pradesh like it has been doing in all the Congress-ruled states.
“You wasted 22 years by electing non-Congress Governments. You first elected BJP; they sought votes in the name of Lord Ram. They became the dealers of Lord Ram. Then you voted for Mulayam Singh ji. He promised development but criminals were seen even inside police stations. You were angry with him and then you elected Mayawatiji in 2007. Half of her ministers are in jail. The land of poor farmers was forcibly acquired by her Government without paying adequate compensation,” argued Rahul Gandhi.
