Priyanka addressed a street meeting here during her roadshow from Gol Kothi to Qutubsher police station, in Saharanpur city with Congress candidate Imran Masood on the last day of the campaign for the first phase.
With barely three days left for campaigning no rally or public meeting of any big Opposition leader has been scheduled to campaign in Western Uttar Pradesh.
She asked if nothing happened during Congress rule, then who made ISRO, IIMs, AIIMS, and IITs.
Priyanka said, "Modiji has made promises and has diverted your attention in the name of religion, caste, women and Dalits. Now is the time for you to show them the truth".
Listing out five demands on behalf of the INDIA bloc at a rally at Ramlila Maidan here, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra demanded an immediate release of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and former Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren.
Lakhimpur Kheri lit the spark and will lead to change in the state's politics. Priyanka Gandhi has laid the foundations for this change and the change in the state will impact national politics.
Rathore asserted that Congress was fully prepared to contest by-elections to the Mandi Lok Sabha seat and assembly segments of Arki, Fatehpur and Jubbal-Kotkhai.
"I have heard that you are coming to Lucknow to celebrate 'Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav' I want to ask you that have you seen the video. The son of one of your cabinet ministers has mauled the farmers. Watch this video and tell the country why hasn't the minister been dismissed and why hasn't this boy been arrested"
The case, according to official sources, has been filed under Sections 151, 107 and 116, on a report given by the station house officer of Hargaon to the magistrate.
Rathore also criticized the arrest of Priyanka Gandhi by the UP police and said Congress will stage protests against ‘jungle raj’ in Uttar Pradesh, besides, the involvement of the son of a Union Minister of BJP in Lakhimpur Kheri violence was very shameful.
