Delhi, Sept 5th, 2022: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday promised loan waivers of up to Rs. 3 lakh to farmers in Gujarat, along with LPG cylinders at half-price and free electricity, if his party comes to power in the state.

Gandhi was addressing the ‘Parivartan Sankalp Rally’ in Ahmedabad where he made several pre-poll promises.

He also promised free electricity up to 300 units to general consumers of the state, creation of 10 lakh new jobs, building of 3,000 English medium schools, and free education for girls.

Taking a swipe at BJP, he asked the crowd, “The BJP government here will waive loans of top industrialists, but have you ever heard that they have waived loans of farmers?”.

The Congress leader asserted that loan waivers of up to 3 lakh would be available to the farmers and many other facilities that the previous governments haven’t been able to provide would be given as well.
