BJP demands employment for poor, not appeasement

Kolkata, Sep 30 (ANI): BJP Chief Rajnath Singh took a jibe at the Congress party-led central government by contending that the country's poor masses need employment to liberate them and shouldn't be used as tools for garnering votes. Lambasting the Congress party for its policies, he said that in the period of 54 years of rule, it has created poor and then given it crutches for survival. Further Singh assailed Vice President of the Congress Party Rahul Gandhi for his utterances in public and said that he has hurt the country's integrity by his remarks. Sep 30, 2013
