Congress leader: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday accused the government of snatching land from the poor and farmers around the National Capital Region in the name of development. He said that he will raise this issue in Parliament and ensure justice for every person of rural Delhi. Rahul Gandhi said that he met some farmers of rural Delhi, who told him about the government’s land pooling scheme. Farmers told that under this scheme their lands have been snatched away in the name of development. He said that this will not be allowed to happen under any circumstances. The pain of poor farmers across the country was echoed in the meeting and conversation with representatives from rural areas of Delhi in the Jan Sansad.
The government is snatching away the rights of the poor
It was said that in the name of development, the Modi government is snatching away the rights of the poor for the benefit of the rich. He clearly said that an organized conspiracy is going on to grab the land of the villages bordering Delhi, which is very serious and worrying. He said that the UPA government had enacted a strong land acquisition law to protect the rights of farmers, taking into account both their voluntary participation and compensation. He said that today, bypassing the same law, policies like land acquisition are depriving the villagers of their land, employment and future.
Party stands with the poor and farmers
Rahul Gandhi said that sometimes by force, sometimes by deception. This attempt to usurp the constitutional rights of farmers, villagers and the poor will not be allowed to succeed under any circumstances. The Congress leader said that this is not just land, it is the foundation of their identity, history and life. Gandhi said in his Facebook post that I will strongly raise this issue in Parliament and ensure justice for every citizen of rural Delhi. Rahul Gandhi said that his party always stands with the poor and farmers. He described BJP as a party of the rich. Attacking the Modi government, Rahul Gandhi said that everyone is suffering in this government. He assured the farmers that injustice will not be allowed to happen to them. Their battle will be fought from the streets to the Parliament.
