Rahul slams PM for destroying India's farmers, poor under orders from Ambanis & Adanis

Jattpura/Jagraon, Oct 4 (UNI) Former Congress president and MP Rahul Gandhi on Sunday lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for ruining the farmers, labourers, small traders and SMEs, under orders from the Adanis and Ambanis.
The billionaire friends of Mr Modi did not have to stand in queues at banks during demonetisation, and even amid COVID-19, their taxes and loans have been waived off while the poor continue to suffer, Rahul said, adding that the small trader still does not know what GST is all about.
Addressing a public rally here at the culmination of the first day of his 'Kheti Bachao Yatra,' the Congress leader said the roads which the farmers use to take their produce to Mandis at present, were not made by the Adanis and Ambanis, but were constructed with the money collected as Mandi fee.
He warned the farmers that with these new laws, the Mandis will be wiped out and there will be no roads left for them to go anywhere to sell their foodgrain. Citing the monumental sacrifices of Punjabis through the centuries, he said the Modi government was trying to break Punjab's backbone by destroying the farmers.
The Congress, he asserted, will not allow the BJP government at the Centre to destroy the system and demolish the structure that it had built over the years to support the ryots, the labourers and other poor people across the country.
The farmers are neither weak nor afraid of the Modi government, said Mr Gandhi, adding that the Congress will fight shoulder-to-shoulder with the farming community, to stop the Centre from destroying agriculture.
