Rahul Gandhi in Maharajganj (UP)

http://pressbrief.in/
On the fourth day of his tour to Uttar Pradesh Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi lashed out at Mayawati Government for the misuse of the fertilizers and urea sent by the Centre. “We sent fertilizers to Uttar Pradesh for the farmers but they are being black-marketed in Nepal. As a result the farmers in the state do not get the required fertilizers and urea sent by the Union Government,” he said.
He was addressing a well attended rally at Maharajganj near the UP-Nepal border on the last day of his UP tour as part of the Congress campaign for the upcoming assembly polls. Referring the farmers’ issues Congress General Secretary claimed that the Congress Governments realizes not just the strength of the farmers but also the difficulties faced by them. “Congress Governments in states like Delhi, Haryana or Andhra Pradesh have been making policies aiming for the welfare of the farmers. They acquire the lands of farmers by paying adequate compensation. But in Uttar Pradesh, BSP Government grabbed the poor farmers’ land in the Ganga and Yamuna Expressways forcibly. Did not pay proper compensation and sold it to the builders. When the farmers agitated, they were labeled as Naxals,” he argued.
“In Tappal and Bhatta-Parsaul farmers were assaulted by the BSP Government. Police fired at the agitating farmers when they were merely resisting the wrong and forceful land acquisition. When the farmers asked for the adequate compensation for their own land the government authorities called them Naxals. Mayawati Government gave no justice but only bullets to the farmers,” said Rahul Gandhi.

Addressing the elected members she said, “ I am happy to be in this historical Youth Congress convention. I expect that you all must have b been benefited with the discussions of the last two days. You must have got a lot of new information and you will try to implement them in your respective areas. I congratulate the Youth Congress for successfully conducting their elections. Would also like to congratulate the Youth Congress Election officers for conducting the election in a fair manner.
You have proved wrong all the apprehensions and have shown that the energy of our youth will definitely take forward the Congress Party.
Our party is the oldest party of this country. In pre independence era the Congress party encouraged the new generation in every part of the country to come forward and provided opportunity to them.
Rajivji believed that our youth will take the country in the forefront of the first row of nations. His decision to provide voting rights at the age of 18 years gave lakhs of youngsters to participate in the democratic process.
Today, Indian youth have registered their presence in the country and abroad in every field. Talented youth should be brought in politics and that's the need of the hour. Your election, your training and your involvement will help in nation building. The process of training which has started is commendable. The very first time you have brought in accountability of the assignment as one's identity. This will help to strengthen the party from the grass root till the top. You all are the foundation of the party and country's hope.
The process of change which has started has given you the elected representatives a very big responsibility. You have to ascertain that the faith which has been shown in you shouldn't go waste. You are responsible towards them who have elected you. And that's why you have to be regularly in touch with them. You have to involve them in your programmes. You have to assign them work and use your imagination in a way that today's voter becomes a sincere worker in the future.

Emphasizing the need for a good government Rahul Gandhi said, “you should bring in a government that works for the entire society – all caste and religion, the poor, dalits, adivasis and the underprivileged. A government that reaches you, listen to you and understand your problems. You can see Congress Governments in Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Haryana or Delhi. We serve the poor in all those states. If a Congress government is formed in UP too, the picture in the state will also change.”
On the fourth day of his tour to Uttar Pradesh Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi lashed out at Mayawati Government and teased her by saying that the grass-eati‘elephant’ was converted to a money-eating’ elephant’ by Mayawati. He was addressing a rally at.

Attacking the state government Rahul Gandhi said that in Uttar Pradesh the real problem is the government, not the people. “They do not come to you to know your pain. They do not listen to you. The government represents only 10% of the society and it works only for them and the funds for the rest 90% are being looted. So you should not let such things happen in your state”.

Expressing his anger over the bad conditions in the state Rahul Gandhi said “I feel angry for the fact that the people of Uttar Pradesh help other countries to develop. The shining metro in Delhi was made by the labours from UP. The roads and buildings in Mumbai were built by them. Who are reaping the benefits of your labour, the respective states. But no jobs are available here in U.P. How can they get jobs without having proper roads, sufficient electricity and water? If your state and you are not developing, you will have to go to other places like Maharashtra, Punjab and Delhi and you have been doing so. We need better development and infrastructure. We need roads, electricity and sufficient water.

“All states, Maharashtra, Haryana, Mumbai, Kerala or Andhra Pradesh, are also surging ahead. The responsibility of the Government is to bring development. But what is happening in Uttar Pradesh? No roads, no electricity or water” he complained. Lamenting over the poor infrastructure in Uttar Pradesh Rahul Gandhi said that the roads in Uttar Pradesh last only 3 months. “The roads are languishing in dilapidated state and are littered with gutters and potholes. Because the funds meant for the roads and other amenities are being diverted to the pockets of ministers and contractors”.

“We sent fertilizers to Uttar Pradesh for the farmers but they are being black-marketed in Nepal. As a result the farmers in the state do not get the required fertilizers and urea sent by the Union Government,” he argued.
Commenting on the misuse of Central funds Rahul Gandhi said, “The money sent through the MGNREGA does not reach the poor. Same is the case with the Janani Suraksha Yojana (JSY). The scheme meant for the benefit of the poor women is also being misused in Uttar Pradesh. Every poor woman is entitled to get Rs 1,400 under this scheme to meet the expenses for the delivery. But in Uttar Pradesh the money meant for the poor women do not reach them. Instead they are forced to bribe the hospital authorities to avail the benefit. This clearly indicates that the money that should have actually reached the poor is not reaching them.”
