Rahul Gandhi slams BJP for its double standards


Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi slammed the BJP and NDA for the double standards taken by them in the case of FDI. He also struck an emotional chord with the youth by saying that they are the strength and the future of our country.
“We have given you the strength and a way to enter politics. You can take part in the political process by fighting elections from NSUI, to begin with, and then Youth Congress before you can join the Congress. You can then have a chance to contest elections as MLA or MP so that you can bring in changes in our society. If you are reluctant to do so, no one else can do it” said Rahul Gandhi.
Referring FDI the Congress leader continued, “We have a Congress government in Delhi. We brought in FDI. FDI is to ensure the right of the farmers to get adequate price for their products. BJP and NDA were not against FDI when they were in power at the Centre. But now, when we implemented it, they oppose it. They also had raised objections when we brought in MNREGA and talked about new land acquisition bill. They want to create obstacles because they know very well that if the Congress is allowed to go ahead these welfare policies, the entire system will be changed positively. If we ask them what exactly they are having in mind to do for the country, you will not get any answer. They are opposing it just for the sake of opposition” added Rahul Gandhi.
The Congress MP also urged the girls to be active in politics to take part in the process of development.
