Addressing a mammoth election rally in Noida as part of his recent campaign for Congress for the last UP assembly polls, Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi had said that BSP and SP cheat the people by making empty promises. “During elections they come with promises and vanish thereafter” said the Congress MP from Amethi. Taking a jab at the SP’s poll promises, Rahul Gandhi said, “Mulayam Singh Yadav now promises free electricity in the entire UP. He was the Chief Minister thrice. I still remember that the people used to receive hefty bills, though there was no adequate electricity. There is no power house built in the past 22 years and so how can he provide free electricity?”
Informing the gathering about the Congress led Centre’s approval of relief package for drought-hit Bundelkhand, Rahul Gandhi continued, “When the people in drought-hit Bundelkhand were crying for relief neither Mulayam Singh Ji nor Mayawati Ji found it necessary to pay a visit there. I had gone to different villages in the region to ascertain the gravity of the situation. The Congress led Centre had sanctioned a relief package for the affected region”. Rahul Gandhi then alleged that the funds sent under the relief package were also plundered by the BSP ministers. “The money meant for well and water went to their pockets,” alleged the Congress MP from Amethi.
