Ridiculing the newly-floated Fronts, Congress chief Sonia Gandhi today alleged that the sole motivation of their leaders was to “grab power” and the Prime Minister’s chair while least bothering for the welfare of the country and the people.
“While these parties and their leaders have the sole aim to grab power and chair at any cost, the Congress wants to serve the people,” she said addressing rallies in Rajasthan.
Underscoring the need for a “stable” government at the Centre, Gandhi claimed only the Congress had the ability to provide such an administration under the “able and honest” leadership of Manmohan Singh.
“Only the Congress party can run such a government dauntlessly that would be stable and sustainable,” she said on the second leg of whirlwind poll-campaign.
Terming the NDA’s tenure as “an era of darkness”, she said, “NDA’s rule was devoted to spreading hatred in the name of religion and caste and poisoning the society.... the country’s borders were unsafe.”
“Congress’ policies and approach were never meant for any single religion or a particular caste but these were holistic and for the welfare of everyone regardless of communities,” she said.
