Second round of campaigning in West Bengal for Assembly polls is in full swing. Congress President Sonia Gandhi today held a rally in Nalhati in Birbhum district. The polling will be held on Saturday.
She started her address with a salutation to the pious land of West Bengal. “I have come here to seek your support for Congress-TC candidates on the basis of performance of UPA government at the Centre”, she said.
She was anguished to see the conditions of the people in the State. “Left Front government has taken the state to near collapse”, she said.
State debt has soared to 2 lacs crores under the Left rule which is alarming. The Left Front government in its own report has admitted that half of the people are living below poverty line and have not got even BPL cards. In certain areas two third of the people do not have drinkable water facilities. There was no law and order in the State. She was dismayed to state that atrocities against weaker sections were on the rise particularly against women. She said there was no urban development.
