Expressing satisfaction over the ongoing Youth Congress elections, All India Congress Committee general secretary Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said they were being held in a democratic manner.
Inspecting the elections at a couple of places here, Mr. Gandhi, accompanied by his sister Priyanka, congratulated Youth Congress members for their active participation. Both spent nearly 30 minutes in a marriage hall at Kattur where the panchayat-level elections were being held.
Mr. Gandhi verified the voters’ list and inspected the counting of votes of nine panchayats in Tiruverambur block. He interacted with about 150 candidates and some party leaders.
Puliyur A. Nagarajan, representing the Tiruchi District Congress Committee (South), urged Mr. Gandhi to allow beneficiaries employed under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme to be deployed for agriculture work in view of the acute shortage of farm labour. Mr. Gandhi assured him that the suggestion would be considered.
Congress functionaries M. Raja Ramanathan and D. Guna suggested that elections be held for the Congress just as they were done in the case of the Youth Congress.
Earlier, Mr. Gandhi witnessed ward-level elections at the YMCA complex in Puthur. Arriving here from Kochi by a special flight, he and Ms. Priyanka Gandhi drove straight to the building to monitor the election process.
Sources said Mr. Gandhi interacted with the candidates, who were seated in a separate enclosure within the building premises. In all, there were 88 candidates, with the number of voters being around 2,000.
During his about 15-minute stay here, Mr. Gandhi also ascertained details about party membership from the Assistant Electoral Officer.
A tight security cordon was thrown around in the city in view of his visit.
S. Sujatha, Mayor; M. Rajasekaran, MLA; Jerome Arockiyaraj, Tiruchi Urban District Congress Committee president; and Subha Somu, Member, National Backward Class Commission, saw off Mr. Gandhi and Ms. Priyanka Gandhi at the airport when they left for New Delhi.
Rahul Gandhi’s samosa story
Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi stopped at an Amethi roadside joint to relish a samosa on 27 march 2010.
As Gandhi enjoyed his samosa, several curious people watched him, as his security kept them at bay.
Rahul bought half a dozen samosas and bread pakoras and paid Ram Bharose, the vendor, for them.
Bharose said he took the Rs100 note as “Rahul’s blessings”.
Rahul, spent time in Amethi taking stock of ongoing development programmes.
He also held meetings and interactive sessions with locals.
Also Rahul Gandhi has asked the UPA government to review the below-poverty line (BPL) list.
The Congress MP made the demand last week while attending a meeting of the parliamentary consultative committee attached to the rural development ministry, which is finalising ways to revise estimates on the number of the poor. Rahul’s stress apparently was on making the BPL list more “inclusive”.
“Rahul Gandhi was concerned about the anomalies in the 2002 BPL list and sought clarifications from the minister. He insisted that the existing list has excluded a number of eligible people and wanted corrective measures,” said a ministry official who attended the April 13 discussions in Parliament House Annexe. The meeting was called to review the progress of the Indira Awaas Yojana, a housing scheme for the poor. This article is posted by Press Brief.
