On the third day of the fifth phase of his campaign for Congress for the upcoming assembly polls in Uttar Pradesh All India congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi fired a fresh salvo at BJP by questioning the sudden entry of BJP leader Uma Bharti into U.P’s electoral politics.“Now BJP has imported a leader from Madhya Pradesh in Uttar Pradesh. She was the Chief Minister in Madhya Pradesh and was made to flee from there. Where was she when the people of drought-hit Bundelkhand were crying for relief? Where was she when we were putting our efforts to get a relief package sanctioned for Bundelkhand? She was nowhere in Uttar Pradesh when the people of U.P needed help” said the Congress General Secretary without naming Uma Bharti. Rahul Gandhi also questioned the 2004 slogan of BJP ‘India shining’.
Rahul Gandhi did not spare SP either. “Other side we see umeed ki Cycle (The cycle of hope). The same Cycle was punctured for three times in Uttar Pradesh. They posted criminals in the Police department under their regime. They did not implement MNREGA scheme properly, and now, when elections are round the corner, they promise unemployment allowance. We talk about jobs, SP talks about berozgari bhatta. How can we trust them again?”
Referring Bundelkhand package he informed that Rs. 8000 cr relief package was sanctioned by the Centre for the region. “Did you get anything? Did you get your wells built?” he asked and the crowd answered with a big no. “The minister’s children got tractors“, he commented.
