Congress President and UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday kick-started her party’s election campaign in Gujarat with a big farmers rally in Rajkot. Sonia Gandhi, while focusing on development, said that the BJP cannot claim the credit for the state’s progress. The UPA government is making an effort to support people, why can't state governments do the same for people? Is it not the responsibility of the state governments also to take all possible measures to help the poor in their states? The VAT is highest in Gujarat. In Congress- ruled states, economically weaker sections get three extra LPG cylinders. Why doesn't Gujarat follow that model? The UPA government has made the legislation to give the rights in their forest lands for the adivasis, but why Gujarat state government did not implement this policy?
