Rahul Gandhi: MNREGA funds ‘looted’ by BSP ministers

Launching a scathing attack against Mayawati government for loot of central funds, Congress (I) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi has said central funds meant for welfare of poor people were looted by Mayawati’s BSP ministers. Keeping in view acute unemployment in UP, Central government brought Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guaranteed Act (MNREGA) scheme for providing guaranteed jobs for the aam admi. Centre also released massive amount of Rs 60,000 crores as financial assistance under this scheme. But in Bundelkhand, no one knows about NREGA policy even. The crores of rupees sent by the Centre are being misused by the BSP Government. The money for the poor is pocketed by BSP leaders and the needy poor do not get anything, said Rahul Gandhi adding that MNREGA has been roaring success in Congress (I) ruled states where poor have got employment, income and leading a respectable life. However, in UP under Mayawati government poverty is compelling the youth to migrate to other places like Mumbai and Delhi for jobs, said Rahul Gandhi.
