Rahul Gandhi promises 'wealth redistribution': An ultra-Left idea even Yogendra Yadav had backtracked from

Op India  

After the colossal failure of the Congress party’s ‘Gareebi Hatao’ slogan over the years, the party prince Rahul Gandhi has come up with the promise of “wealth redistribution” to eradicate poverty and socio-economic inequality. During a public rally in Hyderabad, Rahul Gandhi, stressing on the party’s “Jitni aabaadi utna haq” slogan said, “We will first conduct a nationwide caste census to determine how many people belong to the Other Backward Classes, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and minorities. Pointing out at Congress leader Nakul Nath’s assets worth Rs 700 crore and DK Shivakumar’s assets worth Rs 14,13 crore, an X @TheHawkEye wrote, “Why doesn’t Rahul Gandhi start wealth redistribution in his own backyard? Caste census, Jitni aabaadi utna haq, vilification of India’s wealth generators: Rahul Gandhi’s divisive politics will push India into anarchy and multi-faceted crisis While conducting a nationwide caste census and redistributing wealth on the basis of its findings may seem a ‘revolutionary’ and vote-catching promise, it will eventually leave the country in economic and social crisis.
