All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi said that Uttar Pradesh looks to free itself from the 22 years of
non-Congress rule and claimed that only the youth of the state can do it. While
addressing a big public rally in Jhansi Rahul Gandhi said: "We have to
change Uttar Pradesh. Who will change it? Only the youth can change it, nobody
else. You gave 22 years to these people (non-Congress parties). Now help
Congress to form pro-poor Government in U.P, and you will be clapping for the
state of Uttar Pradesh. Indeed, Uttar Pradesh will develop. Schools will
function and roads will be built under a Congress rule."
Rahul Gandhi also attacked Uttar Pradesh minister Nasimuddin
for his alleged involvement in the corruption in the Bundelkhand package. "Nasimuddin
is the minister of Mayawati. The tractors were given to his children. Congress
Government at the Centre had sent the tractors for the farmers, not for the
minister. The children of a minister do not need a tractor," Rahul Gandhi argued.
The assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh was seen as an
opportunity for the Congress party to re-establish its foothold in its
erstwhile political base in the country's most populous state.
