Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi kick-started the election campaign for Congress today for the upcoming Uttar Pradesh assembly elections addressing a huge rally at Phulpur which was the constituency of the country's first Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru. Today is the 122nd birth anniversary of Pt. Nehru.
The party has finalized the slogan Utho, Jaago, Badlo and also will give a punch line in all their campaign materials 'Jawab Hum Denge". Rahul Gandhi will be spearheading the Congress campaign in the state for the 'Mission UP-2012'. In the last Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh, Rahul Gandhi had led the Congress campaign and the party could do a morale boosting performance.
The party will focus the issues of lawlessness, corruption, misrule and attacks on women and poor people under the Mayawati Government. The campaign will also be focused to highlight the poor record of non-Congress governments on development, crime, opportunities for youth and farmers' issues.
Rahul Gandhi during his address in Phulphur highlighted the bad state of affairs under the Mayawati Government in the state. This is the Constituency of Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru who showed Uttar Pradesh the path of development said Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi starting his address. "There was a time when Uttar Pradesh showed the entire nation the path of development. But today the entire nation is moving ahead, but U.P goes back wards. The state of U.P is ruled by the mafia and criminals" said Rahul Gandhi. "I am in politics for the past seven years and I visited many places in U.P. Experience taught me that unless a leader goes to the people, he cannot understand the problems of the common man. Unless you drink the water from a poor man's home and get sick, you will not realize the real hardship of a common man. Unless a leader goes t a poor man's house, he cannot be angry after seeing the pathetic living conditions" added Rahul Gandhi. There was a time when both Mayawati and Mulayam Singh Yadav used to be angry thinking of peoples problems, but today they forgot the common people and are now bothered about only power, quipped Rahul Gandhi.
