Kicking off his second phase of the Congress Campaign for the upcoming assembly polls in the state, Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi promised that Congress can bring back Uttar Pradesh to the top position again. Addressing a Congress workers’ meet at Babrala in Gunnaur AICC General Secretary said that all the non-Congress Governments which ruled the state for the past 20 years pulled the state backward.
Referring to the local issues he said “there are some demands from your leaders. You urgently need a dam to solve the scarcity of water. Only Rs. 3 crore is required to build such a dam. But the state Government, which looted about Rs. 3000 crore under the NRHM scheme, is not extending any help for this cause. With Rs. 3000 cr they can easily construct atleast two dams in every constituency of U.P”.
Rahul Gandhi continued with his leader-aam aadmi theory and reiterated that leaders should go to the people to realize their difficulties. Sharing a strange experience he had when he visited a hospital in the state he said ““I went to a hospital in UP where some painting and renovation work was going on. I went inside. There were no doctors, patients or nurses. Dogs were scampering inside. I asked them what is going on. They said that Mayawati is on a tour to this area and she will be visiting the hospital and therefore the renovation. As she was expected to take the road route so the roads were being repaired and the hospital building was being painted.”
“Till a leader goes to the poor, stays with them, eat at their home and drink water from their houses and get sick, he cannot understand poverty” emphasized Rahul Gandhi and added “I also travel by Helicopter. To enjoy the scenes from the top is always good. By doing so you do not have to meet people or travel by the dilapidated roads.”
