Election Tracker LIVE: Income Scheme Planned For 6 Months, Consulted Raghuram Rajan, Says Rahul Gandhi

News 18  

Election Tracker LIVE: Congress president Rahul Gandhi Tuesday said his party consulted “big economists” including former RBI governor Rahuram Rajan before it came up with the idea of minimum guaranteed income to the poorest 20 per cent households in the country. As a citizen of this country, I have worked under Vajpayee and Advani.” Veteran BJP leader Murli Manohar Joshi was on Tuesday also dropped as a BJP candidate for the Lok Sabha elections, while Union minister Maneka Gandhi and her MP son Varun Gandhi swapped their seats as the party announced its 29 more nominees from Uttar Pradesh. Congress chief Rahul Gandhi today hit back at the BJP and PM Narendra Modi over the criticism of his minimum income guarantee plan, and said Modi had mocked MGNREGA, too, and failed to understand Congress government’s employment generation scheme. Gandhi said the proposed income scheme of the Congress was the party’s “surgical strike” on poverty, even as he attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for lobbying for industrialists.
