Rahul assures that he’ll wipe out poverty, if voted to power. Gurantees Rs 72000 annually to 20% poor families of the country
The fire brand Congress chief Rahul Gandhi has today shot a decisive political missile towards the ruling Bhartiya Janata Party that would change the narrative of this Lok Sabha election and would strongly help counter the wave of ultra nationalism post Pulwama situation.
Rahul Gandhi has announced that in case his party comes to oower at the centre in the 2019 general elections it’s government will without fail give every poor n economically deprived family of the country Rs 6000 per month i.e. Rs. 72000 annually.
This facility would be accorded to the poorest of the poor families with zero income while those drawing the income of Rs. 3000 per month would be given 36000 economic aid every year.
Political analysts say that this revolutionery anouncement by Congress chief Rahul Gandhi at the nick of the election benefitting over 20% n 25 crore poor families of the country may prove to be a game changer during this election where the feeling of ultra nationalis post Pulwama situation n Hindu polarisation is being spread by the saffron party after from other concessions n populist announcements recently made by the ruling party before the declaration of code of conduct.
As per the Congress president Rahul Gandhi’s statement, who’d remitted the farmers loans withing ten days of his party’s government coming to power in three hindi heartland states, if the Congress comes to power in 2019, the 20% poorest of the poor families of the country would receive 72000 rupees as annual financial support in their accounts automatically.
He also guranteed that his government will top up the gap of the minimum income of Rs 12000 per month of each n every poor family of the country covering about 25 crore people. Sources reveal that the Congress party has already done a deep research on this formula and has find is extremely viable.
It may be recalled that in 1971 Rahul Gandhi’s grand mother and the then prime minister Indira Gandhi had given the slogan of Garibi Hatao ( Eradicate poverty) and had returned to power with a handsome majority.
The Bhartiya Janata Party has given lots of sops to beget votes during the ensuing elections viz extention of income tax exemption limit from 2.5 laks to 5 lakhs annually, Rs. 3000 pensions to the employees of unorganised sector of the country n 10% reservation in govt jobs n educational institutions for the economically backwards sections of the high castes.
The union finance minister Arun Jaitley and law minister Ravi Shankar Prasad have made mockery of Rahul Gandhi’s announcement accusing the Congress party for always betraying the poor of the country n never improving their socio economic lot despite ruling the country for more than six decades.
Meanwhile Rahul Gandhi said that while the BJP led NDA government under the leadership had remitted the affluent tax n loan defaulters of the country given them free hand to enjoy, his government if comes to power will benefit n help the 25 crore poorest of the poor families by depositing Rs. 72000 annually in their bank accounts.
The BJP however seems to be baffled n rattled by Rahul Gandhi’s pro people announcement which analysys say will change the saffron narrative in.the genetal election. Rahul guaranteed that come what may he will wipe out poverty from the country.
