Lucknow,
19 July (HS): Dinesh Pratap Singh, Uttar Pradesh's Horticulture Minister, has
criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on social media and sent a letter to
the people of Raebareli. He added,
Rahul come from a family that has produced four Prime Ministers, and I
grew up eating salt and bread. I studied
and practiced politics, but if he becomes an MP, I will be his primary
opponent.” The minister noted that many
people criticize him and say, Dinesh Singh has no status. But, how many individuals have been blessed
by God with such good fortune? I may be
unworthy of Rae Bareli.But just think about us, how difficult a journey we have
covered. If someone is bigger than us, he will not be as small as us. If
someone is smaller, he will not be as big as us. I first became the block
pramukh. Four times MLA, four times MLC, three times District Panchayat
President, two times and Lok Sabha. That too from the country's largest
national opposition and the largest political family. The members of the family
of four Prime Ministers had to put up the flags of four parties to fight with
us. (Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samajwadi Party, Apna Dal (Krishna Patel) and
Congress. Now people say that I am not a mass leader, I have never won the
public election. I will tell the beloved critics of my beloved Rae Bareli to
read the history of Rae Bareli, find a name that has been able to get almost
equal public opinion in all the five assembly constituencies of Rae Bareli Lok
Sabha.
I
am proud of my well-wishers and party family due to whom I got an average of
about 75,000 votes per assembly constituency, whether it is 2019 or 2024, if we
take the average of both the Lok Sabha elections.”
“This
is a journey starting from Panch to Panchvati, which I did with the blessings
and affection of the god-like brothers and sisters of Rae Bareli. When I oppose
the MP of Rae Bareli, our dear critics of Rae Bareli start abusing me. I am
tired of listening to your abuses, so I thought to tell you that this is my
religion,” he remarked.
The
people of Raebareli have given me the order to not let Rahul Gandhi sleep, to
keep him awake. He comes to Raebareli five times a year. It is not because of
your votes. Sonia Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi used to go away after taking votes
and did not return for five years. But your useless Dinesh Singh, the result of
actively performing his duties is that Rahul Gandhi has to come to Raebareli
five times a year. This is democracy and the religion of democracy, otherwise
tell Rahul Gandhi to sing the praises of Modi. I will also start singing the
praises of Rahul Gandhi from that day itself.
When
you say to the son of Rae Bareli that Dinesh Singh is very small in comparison
to Rahul Gandhi, you make Rae Bareli and yourself very small. But I have said
it earlier and I say it today also that I am a small worker of the national
leadership of my party and Rahul Gandhi is the owner or national leader of his
party. It is true that I can never be Rahul Gandhi, but Rahul Gandhi also
cannot be Dinesh Singh in this birth.
He
started his journey by plane, we started by broken bicycle. Still I am proud of
the values, ability and capacity I got from the holy soil of Raebareli. Rahul
Gandhi must be praying to God that he does not face Dinesh Singh and whenever
he has faced him, he has been seen faltering. If you understand it properly,
you will definitely understand it.
