RAEBARELI (UP), Feb 20:
Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Sunday said BJP has forgotten it’s “raj dharma” of serving the common people and is only working for big businesses.
She said this while addressing a rally in Jagatpur area of Raebareli asking people to watch out for those who use “religion and caste” to get votes.
“BJP leaders have forgotten their religion of serving people. The religion for them has become a means to instigate people to get votes. The government is not following ‘raj dharma’ of serving people,” Priyanka said.
Talking about inflation, she said the prices of gas cylinder and musterd oil have gone up.
“You earn Rs 200 daily and a bottle of mustard oil is of Rs 240,” she said.
She spoke of unemployment among youths and the plight of farmers in the state accusing the government of stoking religious sentiments to divert people’s attentions from these issues.
The leader also alleged unnecessary expenditure by the centre overlooking the money it owed to the farmers.
“The entire due amount of sugarcane farmers is Rs 14,000 crore but Prime Minister Narendra Modi has bought two aeroplanes worth Rs 16,000 crore for himself. He is visiting the world in them but not paying the dues of the farmers,” she said.
“Congress Government waived of loans of farmers but these days the loans of big businessmen are being waived,” the leader said. (PTI)
