While addressing an impressive public rally in Moradabad as part of her campaign for the ongoing assembly polls, Congress President and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi on Friday asked voters to come out of the “Maya-jaal” of divide and rule policy and support Congress for development.
Addressing the people in the brass city Moradabad the Congress President blamed the non-Congress parties for spreading hatred, terror and anarchy in Uttar Pradesh.
“These are the parties that follow the divide and rule policy and you should beware of such forces. It is the Congress that does not treat the people on the basis of caste and religion. The BJP, BSP and SP filled their own coffers and it is because of them that UP has lagged behind. UP, at one time, was the glory of the nation and we must work towards regaining that pride,” said Sonia Gandhi.
Talking about the welfare policies by the Congress-led UPA Government at the Centre Congress Sonia Gandhi said that it was the Congress that set up Sachchar Committee and later implemented its recommendations.
The Congress president said that the centre had sent over `1 lakh crore for different schemes in Uttar Pradesh but all the money went in corruption and scams. “We have given maximum programmes for the deprived sections of society. For women, apart from reservation in panchayats, the Congress has introduced several health schemes but the benefit of all this obviously did not reach you,” she said.
