Rahul Gandhi at Khushi Nagar, U.P on Congress-led UPA’s MGNREGA

http://pressbrief.in/
Appreciating the efforts of the Congress-led UPA Government at the centre Rahul Gandhi said “Our Government came to you, listened to you to realize your problems. You told us that you are not able to fetch a job in your villages, but the rich people do get it. We therefore designed the biggest employment generation scheme MGNREGA for the benefit of the poor. Through the MGNREGA policy every poor person is assured of a minimum of 100 days jobs in a year with a daily wage of Rs 120, thus Rs 12,000 per year is guaranteed. All the states welcomed this policy and implemented it at their places. You go to Andhra Pradesh or any other places, you can experience that. In all these states the funds meant for the scheme reach to the people. You can find the details from the internet. Ask anybody in Andhra Pradesh or Kerala about the most beneficial scheme of the Central Government. Without any doubt most will say it is MGNREGA. All other states like Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Rajasthan, Haryana or Delhi all are benefitted by this scheme”. Taking a dig at Mayawati he continued “But your Chief Minister says that MGNREGA is not beneficial. Mayawati has said that publically also during a rally in 2007 at Lucknow. She will say that the scheme is of no use for you because she doesn’t come to you and realize your pain. If she goes to the poor they will tell her about the benefit of the scheme. But she stays in Lucknow and travels by Helicopter.”
