Congress President and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi along with her daughter Priyanka Gandhi Vadra attended a mammoth election rally in Raebareli, the Parliament constituency of Sonia Gandhi. Sonia Gandhi said that the two decades old non-Congress regimes in Uttar Pradesh took the country backward and assured that a Congress Government will bring back development in the state.
While addressing an election rally Congress President said, “The Government at the Centre made policies and schemes for the welfare of the people and also sent huge amount of funds to every state without any discrimination. In fact, it extended larger help to the states like Uttar Pradesh considering its backwardness. We want all people across the country to be a part of development. We want to bring in positive changes in the lives of my brothers and sisters”.
“The Congress party has been fighting, since the beginning, to protect the interests of every citizen in the country. Now we are fighting to bring back the happiness and development in Uttar Pradesh and for that we need your support and cooperation,” said the UPA Chairperson.
Congress President Sonia Gandhi while speaking at an election rally in Raebareli said hat the Centre made a number of schemes for the development of U.P and sent more than one lakh crore to the state under various schemes. “The Centre had sent Rs. 20,000 crore to UP under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA policy which guarantees jobs to the poor, Rs. 9000 crore was sent under NRHM to ensure proper treatment and medicine for the poor, more than Rs. 23000 crores was sent under Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, and Rs. 8000 crore for Pradhanmantri Gram Sadak Yojana.”
“But where all these funds are vanished? she asked and continued, “No doubt, all these funds were swindled out in corruption and scams. These parties have cheated the entire brothers and sisters in the state. They overlooked the interests of the people”.
