21st May 1991, Sri Perumbudur was rocked by a blast. Suicide attacker had succeeded in their evil motives. They snatched away Rajivji from us and the progressive movement of a developing nation was brought to a screeching halt. This was an international conspiracy, that many top world leaders were afraid about. The then Palestinian President Yasir Arafat had serious concerns about such an attack on Rajiv Gandhi and so he had also warned him.
It was Rajiv Gandhi’s modern vision that made India one of the leading fast moving countries in the world. Today we hear the success stories of many IT giants like Infosys, TCS and Wipro but this could not have been possible without Rajiv Gandhi’s long term vision.

Rajiv Gandhi’s concept of modernisation was not just modernization of industry but more fundamentally modernisation of minds and attitudes. He wanted the scientists and technologists to work and solve the problems relating to water-management and improved sanitation so that the people particularly in the rural areas get a better quality of life.

Sonia Gandhi, an able politician, matured leader

Sonia Gandhi has transformed herself as an able politician, and has proven her ability to control the party from behind the scenes and without drawing too much attention to herself, and effectively maintaining a perfect balance between the party and the government. It was under her leadership the UPA was formed. Sonia Gandhi handled the process by reaching out to other political parties including the Left – though they left UPA 1 later-, in a quite appreciable manner without claiming any credit. It was a surprise even for her political opponents when the Congress President refused to lead the coalition and made Dr Manmohan Singh, the first Sikh, the Prime Minister. Under her matured leadership the Congress led UPA could retain the power in the 2009 general election, but again she chose to be silent and continued her mission as Congress president and UPA chairperson.

Rahul Gandhi: Work together to ensure victory for Congress in Chhattisgarh polls

Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi who had visited Chhattisgarh to attend a Congress training camp on Friday told the Congress workers to work as a single unit to ensure victory for the party in the next Chhattisgarh assembly polls. "If we want Congress to win the upcoming assembly polls, then we need to stay and work together," he said. Rahul Gandhi added that only those leaders who are working at the grass root level, will be given tickets in the upcoming polls. “The UPA government is sending more funds to Chhattisgarh as compared the erstwhile NDA government, but due to corruption the money is not reaching to the beneficiaries”, added the Congress General Secretary.
Asking the youths to come forward to dethrone the BJP government in Chhattisgarh, Rahul Gandhi said that the party workers should go to villages to tell people about the development work being carried out by the UPA government.

Rahul Gandhi: Only Congress listened to the plight of the farmers and Bunkars

All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi had addressed a big election rally in Moradabad as part of his campaign for Congress in the recently concluded Uttar Pradesh assembly polls.

“We (Congress) realize the strength of the farmers as well as their pain. We are aware of their hard work. So we went to them. They informed us that the doors of the banks are closed for them and also that they carry the burden of heavy debts. We, therefore, approved a relief package worth Rs. 60,000crore for them and opened the doors of the banks for the farmers,” informed Rahul Gandhi, referring to the relief package for the farmers.

“Similarly we (Congress) had approved a relief package for Bunkars too. The state government in UP did not do anything for them. Is it not the duty of the state Government to help the farmers and Bunkars? Rahul Gandhi asked.

“When the poor farmers in Tappal and Bhatta-Prasual asked for adequate compensation for the land forcibly acquired by the state Government, they received bullets. Women were assaulted. Neither Mayawati Ji nor Mulayam Ji went there. But now they give promises that they would help the farmers,” said Rahul Gandhi.
