Rahul Gandhi: Rajiv Gandhi implemented Panchayati Raj to empower the rural poor

Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi while launching the party’s election campaign in Rajasthan slammed the opposition for their frequent attacks on the Congress. “Rajiv Gandhi implemented Panchayati Raj.. He did so to empower the people at grass roots. He wants decision on any development works in villages be taken at villages itself and not at Delhi or anywhere else. Similarly the people in the villages should get their rights in their lands.. We are just ensuring that rights.. We will continue to fight for you”.
