Rape, abduction on a rise in Gujarat: Sonia
Sunday, December 09, 2007 00:15 [IST]

Kapadvanj(Guj): Congress president Sonia Gandhi today targeted the Modi-government in Gujarat for the rising incidents of rape, kidnapping and corruption in the state.

Addressing a huge gathering, mostly consisting of women, in Kapadvanj assembly constituency of Kheda district of Central Gujarat, Sonia came down heavily on the state government's failure at various fronts.
"No body is safe in Gujarat under the present regime," Sonia remarked.

"There has been an increase in cases of rape and kidnapping of children," the Congress president said, referring to the recent incidents of kidnapping in Surat district. Large number of farmers have committed suicide and the interest of dalits and backward communities has not been protected, she said.

Sonia also criticised Modi regime for the large-scale corruption which took place in the Sujalam Sufalam irrigation project of the state government.
Without naming the Chief Minister, Sonia Gandhi appealed to the people to throw out the Modi government from power for its failure to deliver on its promises.

"The government talked about big projects but on the ground, implementation is negligible," she added.
"If our party comes to power (in Gujarat), it will announce special incentives for reopening of closed industries and special packages for farmers," she told the gathering.
