KHANNA/SIRHIND: Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi targeted the Modi government’s ‘ Make in India ’ campaign and the SAD-BJP regime in Punjab for slow procurement of wheat during his visit to the state on Tuesday.At Khanna, which has Asia’s largest grain market, Rahul clambered up the roof of his SUV to address farmers and labourers after some in the audience told Congress MP Jyotiraditya Scindia that the Gandhi scion’s trip would be futile if he did not address the gathering. Rahul’s attack on the NDA, that includes the Akalis, received loud cheers from the youth and farm labourers.Saying that the purpose of his Punjab visit was to show the nation that the “government here has forgotten the Punjabi farmer”, Rahul charged that the Akali government was inefficient.“Who’s running the government here? Why are farmers not being compensated for their damaged crops?” Rahul asked, and criticized the Centre as well, saying despite the hype around Make in India, the farmers’ state had gone from bad to worse. He also slammed the Modi government for its attempt to pass the amended version of the land acquisition Bill.“Punjab’s farmer, with his hard work, provides food to the nation. Punjabis have been doing this since Independence. But here, the government has forgotten you. As has the government in Delhi,” Rahul said.“A few years ago, we had an agitation in Bhatta-Parsaul,” Rahul said. “Its aim was to help farmers get their rights over their land. We’d also made a law to safeguard their interests. But the BJP government has weakened that law and wants to dump it,” he alleged.“The government says ‘Make in India’. But it’s weakening the hands that make India, which produce food for India. I came here to tell you that I am with you and we will pressure both the Akalis and the government in Delhi. We’ll raise your issues of compensation and slow lifting of food grains. We’re with you,” Rahul said. He also visited grain markets of Sirhind and Mandi Gobindgarh in Fatehgarh Sahib district.
