Rahul Gandhi, the Congress General Secretary who has been spearheading the Congress campaign in the poll bound Uttar Pradesh said that BJP coined the slogan ‘India Shining’ by watching a TV advertisement. He alleged that BJP thought that India was shining without ascertaining the realities in the country where there were no sufficient jobs, roads, water or electricity when NDA was in power for five years prior 2004.
Referring 2004 Parliament elections Rahul Gandhi reminded “During the campaign for the Lok Sabha elections in 2004 while other parties made a number of hollow promises Congress had only promised a government of aam aadmi that works for poor, farmers, minorities, dalits and adivasis and we delivered it”.
“But BJP and NDA brought out a slogan in English ‘India Shining. When asked about the origin of the slogan their senior leader said that they picked it from a television advertisement. They were in power for five years. But they did not go to people, talked to them or enquired about their problems, they did not ask the women about their issues, still believed blindly that India was shining,” said Rahul Gandhi.
“You gave them a befitting reply. You decided that you trust Congress, Manmohan Singh and Sonia Ji and elected a Congress Government”, he added.
