Rahul attacks Modi on migrants issue

Rahul Gandhi on Monday targeted BJP and Narendra Modi alleging that they brand migrants from other states as “outsiders” as part of their divisive politics and were taking credit for achievements made by Congress over the years.
Interacting with farmers to gather inputs for Congress’ Lok Sabha manifesto in Haryana’s Sonepat district, about 70 km from Delhi, Rahul said the BJP believes in vesting power in one person to run the country while Congress was for giving power to the people.
“BJP believes in concentrating power. They think one or two people can run the country...They think the entire knowledge rests with only one person who can do every thing. We in Congress believe in giving power to the people,” Rahul said in an apparent dig at BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi.
Raking up the migrants issue, especially of Sikh farmers in Kutch, Rahul said Congress and BJP think differently. “For us, everyone is an insider. Even an Indian living in the US is an insider. For them, a ‘UP wallah’ in Maharashtra is an outsider, a Sikh in Gujarat is an outsider, someone from Haryana in Punjab is an outsider,” he said.
“In India you go to any place, for us (all citizens) you are an insider... Wherever they go, they make somebody an insider and someone else an outsider, this is their politics, this is the difference between them and us.”
He was referring to the decision of the administration in Gujarat to freeze land rights of Sikh farmers in Kutch region.
