Priyanka Gandhi – General Secretary – Congress:

Congress General Secretary, Priyanka Gandhi addressed a public rally in Tezpur, Assam. Excerpts, via INC India:

Our 5 guarantees:

– CAA will not be implemented when we form Govt

– 200 units of free electricity each month

– ₹ 2000 for women homemakers each month

– Salary of ₹ 365 for tea plantation workers

– 5 lakh govt jobs will be created

When my father Shri Rajiv Gandhi made the Assam Accord, he said that you will preserve your culture and you will not be dictated by the central govt, but BJP has done exactly the opposite in last 5 years
