Priyanka Gandhi asks voters to change negative politics of UP

Asserting that the vote should be for their future,she said,“Leaders should also know that if they do not work for development and progress of the people,people would not vote them… it would be only then that politics would change.”

Emphasising that she had family ties with Rae Bareli and Amethi and not a political one,Gandhi said she has not come here seeking votes but to wake up the people as otherwise communal forces would continue to “mislead and play with the future of people”.

Development is your right but politics in UP has come to such a low that leaders consider it as some kind of “gratitude”,she said,adding non-Congress parties are “befooling” people in the name of caste and religion.

By diverting the attention of the people,they are developing themselves,she said asking people to choose a government which strengthens democracy and develops UP.

Referring to central government providing funds for development,she said there had been no dearth of funds but instead of letting them reach the people,the “government of Uttar Pradesh used it for its own use”.

“Farmers here did not get fertilisers and people failed to get power…. it was corruption and anarchy which was encouraged,” she charged.
