Everything is 'controlled by a family' in Punjab: Rahul Gandhi

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Friday reached out to the farmers of Punjab and alleged that everything is controlled by a family in the Shiromani Akali Dal-ruled state. He said whether it is education, electricity, water, or seeds, everything is controlled by a family and these days, the family members are not visiting Punjab. Gandhi said he was saddened to hear that that the families of the farmers, who had committed suicide, had not been given any relief yet. The Congress vice-president also attempted to bridge the fissure in his party. He said he came here to look into the regional problems, and to learn about the Guru Granth Sahib sacrilege cases, to meet the people who were shot at, to unite the Congress Party together (in reference to rivalry between PPCC chief Partap Singh Bajwa and former chief minister Capt Amarinder Singh). He also took at Prime Minister Narendra Modi by saying that when he met Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, Modi asked Singh as to how did he run the economy for past 10 years.
