Launching an all out attack on the Modi government at the ‘Mehangai Par Halla Bol’ rally at Ramlila Maidan here, he said the government has shut the path of the Opposition from speaking in Parliament, and the “only way for us is to talk directly to people and tell the truth of the country to people and hear them out”.
Raising people's voice and fighting for them is our resolution.

He accused the Modi dispensation of being unable to provide employment and benefit only select two big industrialists, who are “working for the prime minister 24 hours”. He alleged that the prime minister, in turn, is also working 24 hours for these two industrialists.
- ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ is important as the party has to go directly to people and tell them the truth about the country and where the nation is headed.
- Hatred & anger rising in India since BJP Govt came at Centre, says Rahul Gandhi
- The prime minister is working 24 hours for two industrialists: Congress leader.
“Ever since the BJP government came to power at the Centre, hatred and anger has been increasing in the country. There is pressure on institutions such as media, judiciary, Election Commission, and the government is attacking all of them,” Gandhi said at the ‘Mehangai par halla bol’ rally.
“Only two industrialists are benefitting from this hatred and fear being spread in the country and the BJP is working for their benefit,” Gandhi said.
“The fear of inflation and unemployment is increasing in the country, and due to this, hatred is rising. Hatred does not benefit the country, but it only weakens the country,” he said to a loud applause.
The Congress leader also highlighted the plight of people facing lots of hardships due to price rise and unemployment, and said when the opposition tries to raise their voice in Parliament, the Modi government does not allow it to do so.
The country’s situation is such that even if it wants, it cannot give jobs to its youth, he said.
Gandhi also alleged that the three ‘black farm laws’ were brought in not to help farmers, but to benefit few industrialists.
The former Congress chief said the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ is important as the party has to go directly to people and tell them the truth about the country and where the nation is headed.
