Only Congress is concerned about the issues of minorities: Rahul Gandhi

Criticising Mayawati and Mulayam Singh Yadav governments for not providing due benefits to Muslim minority community, Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi had said that these non-Congress parties did not take steps to fulfill the aspirations of Muslim minority. These non-Congress parties do not talk about poverty and lack of education among the minority, they only talk about caste and religion, Rahul Gandhi had said while campaigning recently for the UP Assembly elections. Congress (I)-led UPA government appointed Sachar Committee to study socio-economic problems of Muslim community and recommend suitable measures for improving their situation, informed the Congress leader. For the first time certain districts have been identified where Muslim minority lives in substantial numbers and minority-specific programs for those areas are being implemented in Congress (I) ruled states, further said Rahul Gandhi. But in UP non-Congress government did not implemented them. Arguing that only Congress is concerned about the issues of minorities, Rahul Gandhi urged the people to vote for his party and assured that Congress (I) would work for entire people without discrimination of caste or religion.
