Congress President and UPA Chairperson proved once again
that welfare of aam aadmi is her most important concern. While initiating the
schemes like MNREGA, RTE, RTI and food security bills, she has now asked the
Central government not to increase the price of sugar distributed under the PDS
system. A meeting of the Congress core committee headed by Sonia Gandhi asked
the government to put off the decision as of now. Despite Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh argued in favour of increasing the sugar prices in the meeting
and pointing out that the government has to cut the subsidies to reduce the
fiscal deficit, Sonia Gandhi was not in favour of such a move at present.
She was always concerned about the poor and underprivileged.
Their pain was her pain. When a massive earth quake jolted Jammu Kashmir, she
took time to reach there without any delay to console the victims and extended
all her help and support to help the affected people. She expressed her concern
and pain when a drastic Tsunami hit Indian coastal areas. Her deep concern for
the aggrieved was also seen during the flood in Gujarat, Maharashtra and
Himachal, during the terrorist attack in Delhi as well as when a number of
persons were killed during the recent riots in Assam.
For Sonia Gandhi politics is not power but a way to serve
the people. The perfect example is her refusal of the post of Prime Minister
when UPA was voted to power. “I always listen to the voice of my inner conscience.
I have said on many occasions that my target is not the Prime Ministership.
Today my inner conscience tells me to politely refuse the post” was the
statement by the Congress President when asked about her turning down the post
of Prime Minister.
Yes Sonia Gandhi is always concerned for the common man and
welfare of aam aadmi has always been her mission. As the UPA chairperson Sonia
Gandhi was instrumental in framing the policies like MNREGA, RTE, RTI and her
next target is to get the Right to Food Bill is passed. Sonia Gandhi has been
putting in her all sincere initiative for more important schemes and policies
for the welfare of aam aadmi.
