AICC Gneral Secretary Rahul Gandhi repeated his comment that the magic elephant in Lucknow gobbles up the money meant for the poor. While campaigning for the Congress in the poll bound Uttar Pradesh, Rahul Gandhi said that while all other elephants eat grass or leaves, Mayawati’s elephant in Lucknow eats up currency notes.
Flaying Chief Minister Mayawati for corruption in Uttar Pradesh, Rahul Gandhi while recently addressing a public meeting said, “The elephant in Lucknow is eating your money. We send money for the people, but it does not reach them in UP." Instead it is being pocketed by corrupt BSP ministers. To deflect the issue of non-performance and not undertaking development in the state Mayawati was putting up an excuse of shortage of funds. But her lie was exposed by the Comptroller and the Auditor General of India report. The report said Mayawati government failed to utilize even 10% of the special package sanctioned by Centre for development of Bundelkhand. The CAG report also criticized her for diverting the funds meant for welfare scheme to altogether different schemes. Assuring the people to put an end to all this Rahul Gandhi has promised that a government of the poor by Congress (I) will fulfill the expectations of the people.
