Embarrassing the BJP party and leadership, its senior leader and former Karnataka chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa heaped praises on the Nehru-Gandhi family and lashed out at his own party chief Nitin Gadkari and veteran leader L.K. Advani.

“The Congress leadership from Pandit Nehru to Sonia Gandhi did not go back on their promises to their party leaders" said Yeddyurappa. "This quality needs to be appreciated," he told reporters in Bangalore as Gadkari and other BJP leaders attended the last day of a party meet in Surajkund in Haryana.

"Till Atal Behari Vajpayee's time, this was the case in BJP also. But not now," BSY added. An immediate fallout of Yeddyurappa's outburst appeared to be the BJP leadership dropping plans to name a successor to incumbent state unit chief K.S. Eshwarappa, whose term ends this month-end.

Sonia Gandhi intervenes, Government put off decision to increase PDS sugar

Congress President and UPA Chairperson proved once again that welfare of aam aadmi is her most important concern. While initiating the schemes like MNREGA, RTE, RTI and food security bills, she has now asked the Central government not to increase the price of sugar distributed under the PDS system. A meeting of the Congress core committee headed by Sonia Gandhi asked the government to put off the decision as of now. Despite Prime Minister Manmohan Singh argued in favour of increasing the sugar prices in the meeting and pointing out that the government has to cut the subsidies to reduce the fiscal deficit, Sonia Gandhi was not in favour of such a move at present.

She was always concerned about the poor and underprivileged. Their pain was her pain. When a massive earth quake jolted Jammu Kashmir, she took time to reach there without any delay to console the victims and extended all her help and support to help the affected people. She expressed her concern and pain when a drastic Tsunami hit Indian coastal areas. Her deep concern for the aggrieved was also seen during the flood in Gujarat, Maharashtra and Himachal, during the terrorist attack in Delhi as well as when a number of persons were killed during the recent riots in Assam.

For Sonia Gandhi politics is not power but a way to serve the people. The perfect example is her refusal of the post of Prime Minister when UPA was voted to power. “I always listen to the voice of my inner conscience. I have said on many occasions that my target is not the Prime Ministership. Today my inner conscience tells me to politely refuse the post” was the statement by the Congress President when asked about her turning down the post of Prime Minister.

Yes Sonia Gandhi is always concerned for the common man and welfare of aam aadmi has always been her mission. As the UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi was instrumental in framing the policies like MNREGA, RTE, RTI and her next target is to get the Right to Food Bill is passed. Sonia Gandhi has been putting in her all sincere initiative for more important schemes and policies for the welfare of aam aadmi.

Sonia Gandhi remembers Motilal Nehru on his 150th anniversary

The Nehru-Gandhi family always stood for the country and worked sincerely for its development. From Motilal Nehru to young generation members like Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi, their services for the country as well as for the Congress party are unmatchable. The present Congress President Sonia Gandhi also has been performing excellently as the Congress President with an innovative vision and pro-poor ideology. Motilal Nehru, an advocate by profession, in 1921 had submitted before the court while appearing for a case that he gave up his lawyer profession to be engaged in social service. He also had informed that he is leaving the job of a lawyer which, at that time, fetched about Rs. 5 lac per annum. Only a true lover of nation can take such an unbelievable decision- to quit a lucrative profession and work for the nation. After Motilal Nehru, Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, now Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra are all following Motilal Nehru’s footsteps. Addressing a function organized at the Vigyan Bhavan in New Delhi, to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the great freedom fighter Motilal Nehru, Congress President and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi paid rich tributes to the great leader. “Motilal Nehru believed that the county was above any community or sect” said Mrs. Gandhi. She also remembered that Motilal Nehru laid the foundation of modern inclusive parliamentary democracy.

Sonia Gandhi pays tributes to Motilal Nehru, urges people to counter the extremist and deviant forces

The nation on Tuesday remembered freedom fighter and former Congress President Pandit Motilal Nehru on his 150th birth anniversary. Addressing a commemorative function organized at the Vigyan Bhavan in New Delhi, Congress President and UPA Chairperson Mrs. Sonia Gandhi paid rich tributes to the great freedom fighter.

“Motilal Nehru believed that the county was above any community or sect” said Mrs. Gandhi. She also remembered that Motilal Nehru laid the foundation of modern inclusive parliamentary democracy. The Congress President asked the countrymen to counter the extremist and deviant forces that are challenging well laid-out democratic values of equality and social justice.

 “Motilal Nehru was a committed soldier to freedom struggle and was twice president of the Indian National Congress. Sadly, Motilal Nehru did not live to see India achieve independence. But his love for India manifested itself in his ability to shed the trappings of material and professional success; indeed his all way of life and devoted his later years to that goal. Apart from his legislative works he laid great stress on communal harmony and national unity” said the Congress President.

Sonia Gandhi said further “Staunchly secular, he always believed that communal passions are inconsistent with the true spirit of religion or the traditions of our country. History’s his singular contribution that can be laid at his doorstep it is the visions spelt out in what has passed into history as the Nehru Report of 1928 which he authored”.

“Our modern inclusive parliamentary democracy owes much to this seminal document which outlined a system of government in which all could vote and all could be free to practice the faith. It laid the foundation for equal rights of men and women, for fundamental rights for all, for directive principles and the Supreme Court.  All these have been already incorporated into our constitution” added Sonia Gandhi.

Sonia Gandhi recollected that Motilal Nehru never bowed to the sentiments of caste, sect or community which were being propagated by his opponents. “This was unthinkable for him. He firmly believed that country is above any community or sect” she added.
