Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi while addressing a mammoth Congress in the Taj City, Agra, had appealed the people to help Congress to form a Government in UP to transform the state.
The young Congress MP from Amethi alleged that non-Congress parties like the Bharatiya Janata Party, the Bahujan Samaj Party and the Samajwadi Party make a number of promises but deliver nothing. "We (Congress) will not make promises but will work and show results," said Rahul Gandhi at a rally at the Kothi Meena Bazar ground.
"They had talked of India shining in 2004. Was India shining or Agra shining?" Rahul Gandhi asked and the big crowd responded with a roaring ‘no’. "If you want to hear promises, go to Mayawati or Mulayam Singh Yadav" Rahul Gandhi told the gathering.
Mulayam Singh Yadav had promised people in Bundelkhand that he would turn the backward region into Israel. In 22 years no power plants were set up while they promised free electricity. People have got bills but no electricity," said the Congress General Secretary taking at a dig at Mulayam Singh Yadav’s poll promises.
"Those with clear intentions don't need to make promises," repeated Rahul Gandhi. The Congress leader asked the gathering what had Agra got? "Nothing," the crowd roared back. "Agra is the Taj of the state and see how it has been ignored and has not benefited at all."
Rahul Gandhi then assured "Give us (Congress) five years. With your support, we will work for a better future."
