Respect chaiwallas but not the one fooling you, says Rahul Gandhi in Gujarat rally
Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said the BJP wanted to wipe out the poor and not poverty and accused Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi of fooling people.
Addressing a public meeting in Bardoli in Gujarat, he said while people of Gujarat toiled for the state's progress, Modi took away all the credit.
"Gujarat progressed due to the sweat of its people, not because of one man's efforts. People of Gujarat worked hard and he takes the credit for it. Now he wants to make a statute," he said.
He said Gujarat had a pro-rich government run by a handful of people.
"Gujarat does not have a poor people's government. Gujarat has a rich people's government. Five to six people run the government. Fifty-five thousand small businesses have shut down in the state. No one speaks about that.
He also accused the state government of siphoning off aid meant for tribals.
"They were given Rs.55,000 crore as assistance.
Did you see the money? No one got a single rupee.
A package of around Rs.42,000 croe was announced during the sadbhavna yarta.
Someone sent an RTI query and it came out that no money was ever allocated."
Fifty-five thousand small businesses have shut down in the state. No one speaks about that. There are tribal brothers here. They were given Rs.55,000 crore as assistance. Did you see the money? No one got a single rupee."
On Modi referring to his past a tea seller, Rahul Gandhi said every working person, be it a tea seller or a labourer, should respected.
"But we shouldn't respect someone who makes a fool out of you," he said.
Excerpts of Rahul Gandhi's speech:
"We want to give power to the people. Your politics is our politics. Your fight is our fight.
Gujarat does not have a poor people's government. Gujarat has a rich people's government. Five to six people run the government.

How will you get BPL card? We talk about removing poverty, they want to remover the poor.
We say give food to people, give rights to the people.
Indira Gandhi had said 'Garibi hatao'. They say 'Garib hatao'.
Brothers, we will put the poor into the middle class by giving them rights.
See, those who make tea, all of Hindustan does some work, someone makes tea, someone drives a taxi, someone does farming, everyone should be respected --- the chaiwalla, the taxi driver and the labourer.
We should not respect someone who makes a fool of you."
