The lavatory will be constructed by the registered brothers with their own resources, she said.Later, a lucky draw will be organised to give prizes to three participants. Cash prizes of upto Rs 50,000 and mobiles will be given to the winners.

    To which bank did Rahul Gandhi transfer the 4 crore development fund allocated to each MP ? Let him disclose in public or in Parliament of his fund transfer. Now think, how much development would you expect if Rahul Gandhi became the PM in 2014 ? Being the political hotbed of Sickular congress & Rahul, now you guess the level of development in his own constituency, not even a toilet was built on his MP tenure there.

    In 40 years that this Gandhi family has represented Amethi, neither has the basic amenities in Amethi changed or improved, nor has the life of people of that constituency improved. Rahul Gandhi has not even been an average member of Lok Sabha in the ten years that he represented that constituency. The question is why should the people of Amethi still support Rahul Gandhi ?
