Dynamite News PM Modi works for capitalists not for poor farmers: Rahul Gandhi
"The farmer who grows crops could not get advantage out of it. Modi did not help farmers. He broke his promises. He has forgiven debts of 50 families in last two and half year. He works only for the rich people of the country and does nothing for the youth and farmers," Gandhi said at rally here.
Kushinagar, Uttar Pradesh: Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying that the latter works only for capitalists and overlooks poor farmers.

Taking jibe at Prime Minister Modi, he said: "Narendra Modi says that 'Ganga Maa' has called him from Gujarat. I would like to ask him whether 'Ganga Maa' has only one son?"
Stating that voice of poor farmers is not reaching Prime Minister Modi, Gandhi said: "When a farmer sees a bottle of insecticide, then only one thing comes in his mind that is to commit suicide by consuming it. Farmers' voices are being suppressed."
