INDIA युवाओं को रोज़गार देना चाहता है – वो बेरोज़गारी की बीमारी
INDIA किसानों को MSP से मज़बूत बनाना चाहता है – वो मजबूर
INDIA जातिगत गिनती करना चाहता है – वो सिर्फ राजनीति
आ रही है INDIA की सरकार,
बदलेगा भारत, बढ़ेगा बिहार। https://t.co/zbap79NQdP— Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) February 16, 2024
What did Rahul Gandhi say on the farmers movement?
Rahul Gandhi’s statement comes at a time when the Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) has called for ‘Bharat Bandh’ on Friday to put pressure on the BJP-led central government to accept various demands of farmers, including legal guarantee of MSP for crops. . Farmers from Punjab had started the ‘Delhi Chalo’ march on Tuesday but were stopped by security forces at the Shambhu and Khanauri borders between Delhi and Haryana. Since then, farmers have been camping on the Shambhu and Khanauri borders. Friday is the fourth day of their agitation. Gandhi hit out at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led central government, accusing it of putting a large part of the defense budget in the pocket of industrialist Gautam Adani.
Rahul Gandhi’s target on defense budget
He said, “I have to tell you one thing that at present the Centre’s defense budget is not for the welfare of the soldiers. All defense contracts are going only to Adani Group. In fact, the central government is putting a large part of the defense budget money in the pocket of industrialist Gautam Adani. Gandhi said, “Whatever the Center bought for the armies. Helicopters, military aircraft, cannons, cartridges, rifles and all modern weapons were purchased from the company owned by Adani Group. You will find the name of Adani Group everywhere (in all defense contracts). Gandhi also targeted the Center over the Agniveer scheme and said, “The Center has created two categories in the Army. One Agniveer and one other. If any Agniveer gets injured or becomes martyr, he will neither get the status of martyr nor the necessary compensation. Why this discrimination? Why have they created two categories in the army?
Tejashwi Yadav targeted Nitish
He said, “I am giving you an example. Suppose four youth have been selected as Agniveer. After four years, three out of four youth will be sent back home and only one of them will be provided further employment, what will the remaining three do. Will they sell pakodas?” On this occasion, Yadav said, ”The Prime Minister does not have time. He will definitely meet Priyanka Chopra but will not meet our farmer brothers. Targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said, “These people do politics of hatred and propagate lies.” Taking a dig at Kumar for switching sides and joining the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), he said, “He (Nitish Kumar) used to say that now he will not make the same mistake again, he will be reduced to dust but will not go with the BJP.” We are innocent people, we had accepted a “tired Chief Minister” again to stop the communal forces in the country.
