UP govt exploiting youths, Dalits’: Priyanka asks Cong workers to stage protest

Delhi: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi on Tuesday held another virtual training programme for youth Congress workers and party workers ahead of the Uttar Pradesh assembly elections. During the training programme for party workers in Jhansi, Priyanka said that the Yogi Adityanath-led government in Uttar Pradesh is exploiting Dalits as well as the people from the deprived sections of society. She said that the government failed to give relief to the people.

“Crimes are on the rise in Uttar Pradesh. The prominent agenda of the Yogi Adityanath government is the exploitation of the Dalits, the deprived and the exploited sections of the society. The silent support to criminals is making the situation explosive. The government is far from giving any relief to the people,” Priyanka was quoted as saying by news agency PTI.Priyanka, who earlier held a similar session with workers from Mathura and Lucknow, reiterated that party workers need to stand firm with the people of the state. She said every worker should play an active role in tackling the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Priyanka said that the nation is adversely affected because of the ‘anti-people policies of the government and Congress can take the leading role in tackling the challenges.
