New Delhi: Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi has said that the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) is a deadly attack on the countrymen and his party will not allow the law to come into force when he comes to power after the Assam Assembly elections. Due to bad weather, Rahul Gandhi could not reach the election tour of Assam today.
Rahul Gandhi in a video message on Tuesday said, “CAA is an attack on Assam, a medium to attack language, thought, history, culture.” We will never let this happen. After forming the government, we will make laws in Assam and will not allow the CAA to come into force. This law is contrary to the culture, history and thinking of the people of Assam. We will never let this happen. “
He said that ever since the Modi government came to power at the Center, nothing has been done for crores of daily wage laborers including tea plantation workers till date. He said that today when the assembly elections in Assam are close, the Modi government wants people to believe their words. He asked what the central government did to wipe the tears of crores of daily wage laborers, including tea garden workers.
Rahul Gandhi said, “Jumals and development have no relation between each other – the public has understood this. We had made it clear in Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh that the promises we will make will be fulfilled by those promises; These promises will not be hollow. In Chhattisgarh, we showed a loan waiver. “
He also attacked the government over demonetisation and said that the demonetisation and GST has been ruined by the Bharatiya Janata Party. He said that the government should understand that the economy cannot run by taking money out of everyone’s pockets.
