TRUTH WHICH EVERY INDIAN SHOULD KNOW........... ABOUT THE RAHUL GANDHI AMETHI CONSITUECY

Satya Narain Jaiswal, 60,

Satya Narain Jaiswal aka Kalle runs a general store on the main road of Gauriganj, the new district headquarters of Amethi. One of the first visits Rahul Gandhi made immediately after becoming an MP in 2004 was to Kalle’s home. Like Mumtaz, seven members of his family were killed in a fire accident on November 4, 2004. Rahul came calling the same night. “I had lost my entire family. He consoled me and assured me help,” recalls Kalle. His 22-year-old son and 32-year-old mentally challenged daughter stare at their father, who has lost a hand in an accident not related to the fire. Kalle has another daughter whose husband too died in the fire. “Other politicians also came,” he adds. Former chief minister Mulayam Singh Yadav promised him Rs 1 lakh but only gave Rs 50,000. Three months later, Rahul was back in his constituency. Kalle went to meet him at the Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital. “He said the block pramukh will assess my case and get back to me.” Again nothing happened. “We have merely become pawns in the games these politicians play, be it Mulayam Singh or Rahul Gandhi,” he says. “They use us for publicity and don’t care if we live or die.” Congressmen point out that around Rs 5,000 was paid to Kalle and Rahul recommended his name for the Parivar Labh Yojna, a state-level welfare scheme. But Kalle is not satisfied.

This is not to say that the Nehru-Gandhi family has brought no change to Amethi. Take the example of Ram Bhajan. In the village of Purnapur, upper caste goons had thrown him out of his land and destroyed his house. The police had refused to register a case. During Priyanka Gandhi’s election tour in 2004, Congressmen brought his case to her notice. She immediately took up his cause, fought with the police and got Congress workers to build him a house. “It was one of the rare cases,” says the Congressman from Amethi who informed Priyanka about Bhajan. “Such cases never happen under Rahul.” During his padyatra from Bhatta-Parsaul to Aligarh, Rahul claimed he learned more than in parliament. How much has he learnt about Amethi in the past seven years as its MP? And when will he stop learning and start implementing?
