I've learnt the ground realities from you: Rahul to farmers

Lucknow, Jul 8: The Congress scion Rahul Gandhi, who left no stone unturned to hit the Maya government with his verbal attacks, would undertake his last day of kisan sandesh padyatra on Friday, Jul 8 that would eventually culminate in the maha-panchayat at Aligarh on Saturday, Jul 9.

He confessed during his interaction with the farmers at Devaka village that he has not learnt as much in the Lok Sabha as he has learnt from the farmers. "When we sit in Delhi or Lucknow, we don't get to know ground realities. I have not learnt as much in Lok Sabha as I learnt from you," Rahul said.

He spent the night at a famer's place in Maror-Garhi village in Aligarh district. Even there, he held a small gathering and spoke to the local villagers about their concerns.

While firing a salvo at the Mayawati government, Rahul said, "All the farmers' land is being taken away. And this is happening because you are not united. That is the problem, the entire state is divided. 'Dalals' are running the state. You may not like it, but this is the truth."

"Every child in the country is aware of the scams of the central government and those running such a government have no right to raise a finger at the UP government," a BSP release said.
