AICC Secretary Rahul Gandhi met prominent Congress leaders and common people of Jaunpur district in Uttar Pradesh to assess the state of development the region has achieved so far. He met the leaders and the party candidates at the local inspection house on Thursday.
Rahul's latest 'public' visit started at Jafrabaad constituency. The Youth Congress icon reached the district's small colony Lallapur and set a gathering in front of a house. The meeting with the residents led to discussion of benefit people have got from the funds provided by the Centre through various development programmes. The money, as evident from what they have said, has not reached to them. Most of the people there said the welfare programmes haven't been implemented well.
From here, the Caravan of Rahul moved over to another village Husepur and in a few moments greater gathering emerged. Rahul asked "Why people of Uttar Pradesh who go and enrich Mumbai and Delhi are in such a miserable condition?"
