Haryana Assembly Elections 2024: People Will Strike Blow To Break ‘Chakravyuh’ of PM Narendra Modi’s ‘Crony Capitalist’ Policies, Says Rahul Gandhi
Rahul Gandhi also alleged that the 'disease of unemployment' spread by the BJP has put the future of the state's youth in 'deep danger' and a Congress government will ensure that employment returns and every family is prosperous.
New Delhi, October 4: Alleging that the BJP has "failed" the economy in Haryana, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Friday said the people of the state will soon strike the next blow to break the 'chakravyuh' of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "crony capitalist policies".
He also alleged that the "disease of unemployment" spread by the BJP has put the future of the state's youth in "deep danger" and a Congress government will ensure that employment returns and every family is prosperous. Gandhi shared on X a video of his interaction with a group of women during his recent Vijay Sankalp Yatra.

Along with the video, he said in his post in Hindi on X, "The disease of unemployment spread by BJP has put the roots of Haryana, the future of the youth and the security of the state in deep danger." "Some sisters of Haryana gave shelter during the Vijay Sankalp Yatra, fed homemade rotis with great love and also explained the complex problems of the state," Gandhi said.
Today, Haryana has the highest unemployment in India, he said. "The reason for this is - BJP has broken the backbone of every system that provides employment to the youth of the state in a decade," he alleged. The BJP has broken the back of small businesses with flawed GST and demonetisation, Gandhi said.

It has broken the spirits of youth preparing for the army with Agniveer, he said. The BJP has broken the courage of those doing agricultural business with black laws and broke the dreams of sportspersons by snatching their support, Gandhi further alleged. It has broken families by stopping government recruitment with 'Parivar Pehchan Patra', he said.
"The result of this: Youth talent getting wasted in the grip of drugs. Disappointed youth taking the path of crime. Families getting destroyed by the journey of dangers like Dunki," he said. The Congress government coming to power in the state will provide 2 lakh permanent jobs and make Haryana drug free, he said.
"I have promised the sisters of Haryana that I will stop this devastation, I will protect their children - employment will return, and every family will be prosperous," Gandhi asserted. In another post on X, the former Congress chief recalled that he recently spoke about delicious jalebis in Gohana and the opportunity to sell them more widely.
India has 5,500 clusters of similar small producers who can market their products to the world if given the right support, he said. They need policies to provide them with finance, technology, networks, branding and better organisation, Gandhi stressed.
"With this support, the world can enjoy not only our mithai but apples from Sopore, jeans from Ballari, Kolhapuri chappals, pineapples from Meghalaya, makhana from Bihar, brassware from Moradabad and many more. The global success of Banarsi saris is a great example of what is possible," he said.
Gandhi said India needs rapid economic growth which benefits everyone, and a more productive economy which can compete on the global stage. "This can only be done by empowering our small businesses, rather than focusing on a few crony companies like Modiji has done," he said.
Such inclusive growth is the only way to create the crores of formal jobs India needs to meet the aspirations of a young, educated and energetic generation and secure India's future, he said. "The BJP has failed the economy in Haryana and India. They have pushed crores into informal jobs and forced lakhs to leave India by destroying small businesses. Their only interest is in products that are mass-produced by Adani!" Gandhi alleged.
"The people of Haryana understand this very well. They will soon strike the next blow to break the 'chakravyuh' of Modiji's crony capitalist policies," he said. While the polling for the Haryana Assembly polls would take place on Saturday, the counting of votes would be done on October 8.
