Govt busy in infusing hatred among people: Rahul in Bahrain
Manama, Jan 8 (IBNS): Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Monday addressed a gathering of PIOs in Bahrain where he slammed India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party government for creating hatred and division among people.
Addressing the gathering, Rahul said: "The tragedy is that instead of focusing the attention of our people on what is critical - the removal of poverty, job creation and the building of a world-class education system - we see instead a rise in the forces of hatred and division."
He said, "Together, we must steer India back to its original strengths, we need to make India the centrepiece of ahimsa, of non-violence, of compassion."
Rahul alleged that job creation in India today is at an 8 year low.
"New investments are the lowest they have been in 13 years, bank credit growth has sunk to a 63 year low," said he.
"We need to bring our conversation back from violence and hatred to one of progress, jobs and love between our people. And we cannot do that at home without our largest skill base on the planet – all you people in this room," said the Congress President.
Promising to rebuild the party, Rahul said the Congress's vision is one that builds bridges and is compassionate - it is a tried and tested vision that has fought for India in its toughest moments.
"Ours, more than any other vision, because of the struggle and because of our victory in India's liberation, is a vision that has strong roots in the NRI community," said he.
