Rahul Gandhi stresses for people's rights in the function to grant freehold rights in Delhi colonies

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi stressed for the need to empower people with rights. "Earlier people spoke only of development, it is the Congress which pioneered the rights-based approach," said Rahul Gandhi. He was speaking at an event in which Malikana Haq (Ownership Rights) were given to residents of 45 resettlement colonies. The move will benefit as many as 15 lakh people. These colonies were developed in 1970s and people putting up there have been finding it difficult to effect transfer of title as free hold rights were not offered yet. There are 45 resettlement colonies in the city, which are home to lakhs of people. Last year Congress president Sonia Gandhi had issued provisional certificates of regularisation to unauthorised colonies.
