Rahul Gandhi at Nanpara, U.P talks about the Relief package for the Bunkars



Rahul Gandhi said that the state lacks even the basic infrastructure. "There is no electricity, water or the basic amenities available in UP. A young man once came to me and showed me a bill of Rs 26,000. He said he has only 4 bulbs in his entire house but the bill he got was for this huge amount. When I asked him whether he gets regular electricity, he said a big no. No electricity, not much electrical instruments or bulbs, still he got a bill for Rs 26,000. This is the situation in UP"
Regarding the relief package for the Bunkars Rahul Gandhi said, "some of the delegates of the Bunkars came to me. They apprehended if the scheme for them will be implemented through the state run society the money will not reach them. So we changed the policy and made such a scheme that the money would directly reach the Bunkar's bank account."
Sending a warning signal Rahul Gandhi said, "if you want that the youth of this state should not go to Maharashtra or Delhi in search of jobs then you should vote to bring in a government of common man."
Reiterating Congress' commitment to the welfare of common man Rahul Gandhi told the party workers that the state government in UP represents only 10% of the people and the rest 90% are being ignored. "The castist governments loot the Central funds and do not bother about development. But Congress wants to bring in a government that works for everybody. Uttar Pradesh is the biggest state in the country and used to show the path to other states. You cannot change UP if you do not change the government in the state. We need a government who treats entire people as one," he said.
