BJP dreams of coming to power even during day: Sonia

Sonia-GandhiKhargone (Madhya Pradesh), Nov 15 : Congress President Sonia Gandhi Friday attacked the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), saying its leaders dream of coming to power even "during the day".

"You must be knowing that BJP leaders nowadays dream of occupying the chair during the day also. They are so full of greed for the chair that they are even trying to denigrate each other," Sonia Gandhi said while addressing a rally here.

She said that the Congress has never compromised on its principles for coming to power and will never do so.

The Congress president said: "If they feel that they can win over people's hearts by just talking then they are mistaken."

"They have just been making promises and misleading you (the public)," Sonia Gandhi said.

Attacking the BJP government in Madhya Pradesh, she said no action has been taken against corrupt officers who have been named by the state Lokayukta.

"There is not even drinking water in the state. If you want water and seeds then you have to go to the shops of BJP leaders," she alleged.

Sonia Gandhi said that the UPA government has brought in the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act to provide employment in rural areas. (IANS)
