BJP National Secretary Tarun Chugh today said that Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi has no genuine concern for farmers of India and was only playing to the gallery. He said the Congress leader who had just returned from a 56 day introspection session was indulging in politics of sensationalisation.The sympathy and concern displayed by Rahul Gandhi is nothing but a sham and an act to gain cheap popularity through immature acts.Would Rahul come forward to tell the people of the country who was responsible for the plight of farmers of India. No one is going to believe Rahul that ten month old BJP government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi is responsible for it.
Each and everybody understands that the damage done by successive Congress governments in the centre to the cause of farmers cannot be undone in just ten months.It is really disturbing that Rahul instead of doing something concrete for farmers is trying to gain political mileage out of the issue. How can Rahul or for that matter Congress claim to be the well-wishers of farmers as they did nothing in their regime. It is the Modi government which has relaxed the norms for damaged crops and announced that the government would compensate for crops damaged to the extent of 33% instead of 50%.It is very sad that a failed leader was using genuine issues of farmers as a tool to repair his badly damaged image and career. Has Rahul Gandhi forgotten the fact that around half a lac farmers committed suicide during 2011-2013 in Congress ruled Maharashtra.
Keeping mum on such huge issues and shedding crocodile tears on the issue which was being aptly dealt by NDA government is what Rahul Gandhi stands for.If Rahul is really intersted to lend a helping hand to farmers would he ask his brother-in-law Robert Vadra to return the land he acquired for peanuts due to the influence of Gandhi family.The man who is projecting himself as a messiah of farmers and is trying to play to gallery by travelling in general class of a train need to enlighten people of India, what exactly he did for the benefit and welfare of Kalawati.
