Wayanad, November 3 (IANS). Priyanka Gandhi on Sunday, along with her brother Rahul Gandhi, launched a scathing attack on the Narendra Modi government on inflation and unemployment from the election platform. He said that the government ignores the common man and only promotes rich businessmen by waiving off their loans.
Launching the second phase of her campaign for Kerala’s Wayanad Lok Sabha by-election, Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi stressed the need to improve basic health facilities, drinking water, housing and education in the constituency.
Promising to put pressure on the government in Parliament for more investment for the rural employment scheme, he said the Modi government waived off loans worth Rs 16 lakh crore of rich businessmen but did not provide compensation to farmers for crop loss or better health services. And is reluctant to spend on jobs.
Attacking PM Modi for taking favors from big businessmen, Priyanka Gandhi said that his aim is to remain in power by spreading anger and hatred and dividing you. He said that Prime Minister Modi is oppressing democratic institutions and depriving people of their rights.
Promising to continue the fight started by Rahul Gandhi on behalf of the voters of Wayanad, Priyanka Gandhi said she has tried hard to solve their problems by raising them in Parliament. Highlighting inflation and unemployment as fundamental problems, he said that the state and central governments are not working for the people.
He thanked the voters of Wayanad for standing by his brother Rahul Gandhi even though he was being attacked every day by the BJP and a massive campaign was being launched to malign his image. Sharing his blueprint for development in Wayanad, the Congress general secretary highlighted the potential of promoting tourism and food processing to increase the income of the people.
Rahul Gandhi, who avoided raising political issues in his address, said that the fight in the country is not limited to hatred, but to protecting and upholding the Constitution made with humility and love. During this, he praised his sister Priyanka Gandhi. She said that sometimes I am more logical, but she is more emotional than me. So I am confident that you are going to get the best MP. I am saying this firmly that no one is better suited than him to be your MP.
Citing the example of Priyanka Gandhi’s commitment, Rahul Gandhi said that when she was coming here this morning, she had a list of where we will focus in the future, where we will fight for Wayanad and where we will harness the potential of Wayanad. Will strengthen.
