BJP Wants Country To Be Run By 2-3 People: Rahul
Launching a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party on Friday, ahead of the Jharkhand state elections, Congress leader and Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi addressed a public gathering in the Simdega district of Jharkhand, saying that while he wants the country to be run by a majority, BJP wants to give away all the land to billionaires.
Gandhi said that the BJP leaders simply want to give all the land and the country’s wealth to a few billionaires.
“I want that if this country is run, then 90 percent people should run this country and BJP wants that the country should be run by two to three people – PM Narendra Modi, HM Amit Shah, Ambani and Adani – and the entire country’s wealth, whether it is your land, forest – everything would be snatched from you and given away to these 10-15 big billionaires,” he said.
Claiming that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has waived off the loans of elite, he said that they instead blame him when he demands a loan waiver for farmers.
“PM Narendra Modi has waived off the loans of Rs 16 lakh crores of 25 people. You will not find a single tribal, a Dalit or a backward-class person among them,” he said during the meeting.
He added, “When we say that the farmers’ loans should be waived off, then they say, look, Rahul Gandhi is spoiling the habits of farmers. When you waived off their loans, did you not spoil their habits? When you (PM Modi) waived off the loans worth Rs 16 lakh crore then did you not spoil them? They took such a big loan and that was forgiven, but a small farmers which takes Rs 50 thousand loan, then it is said they are spoiling farmers. We want justice. If the nation is to be run, then it will not be run by 2-3 people but by the 90 per cent of people.”
Gandhi raised the issue of the ongoing Manipur violence, stating till now the PM has not visited the state.
“Let me tell you about Manipur, wherever the BJP people go, they make brothers fight between each other, from one religion to other, from one jaati to other, from one language to other, they incite and spread hatred. They (BJP) burnt Manipur and to date, the Prime Minister of India hasn’t visited there.”
Saying that the state was “burnt because of the ideology of BJP,” he added, “It means that they have accepted the fact that there is no state like Manipur. Manipur was burnt because of the ideology of the BJP. That is why I said, I went from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, travelled 400 km, and I said while on the way, nafrat ke bazaar mein mohabaat ki dukaan kholegne.”
