Amritsar: Former Congress President Rahul Gandhi has targeted PM Narendra Modi while addressing an election meeting in Hoshiarpur, Punjab on Monday. He said that, 'PM Narendra Modi used to say that he will send 15 lakh rupees to everyone's bank account, will give employment to 2 crore youth. did anyone get this? Why doesn't he speak on corruption and employment? They did demonetisation, implemented GST. Who benefited?’
Rahul Gandhi said that for a year, the farmers of Punjab stood hungry in winter as PM Modi tried to give their hard work to 2-3 billionaires. PM Modi could not keep a 2-minute silence in Parliament for the farmers killed during the protest, did not give compensation, but the Rajasthan and Punjab governments did. In the 'Navi Soch Nava Punjab' rally, the Congress leader said that Hoshiarpur is the center of agriculture. 'Farm Tools' is the center and the Congress Party's government will work to build a food park and a cluster of machine tools here. Whatever you grow at the food park, be it potato chips or tomato ketchup. All this will be made here.
Rahul Gandhi further said that, you will grow crops in your field. After this, you will directly take him to the food processing unit. Whatever potatoes, tomatoes, chillies grow, the farmer will directly take it to the food processing unit and money will come directly in his pocket. The Congress leader said that Punjab elections are in front of us and this is not a minor election. In this you have to choose a new government of yours.
