Gandhi bashed the Narendra Modi-led government for waiving off loans for top industrialists. He said, "The BJP government here will waive loans of top industrialists, but have you ever heard that they have waived loans of farmers?"
"Sardar Patel was the voice of the farmers... BJP on one side makes his tallest statue & on the other side, works against people for whom he fought... if we come to power in Gujarat, we'll waive off farmers' debts upto Rs 3 lakhs," Rahul Gandhi promised.
After the 'Parivartan Sankalp' rally, Gandhi will visit the Sabarmati Ashram where he will attend a prayer meet and seek blessings of Mahatma Gandhi ahead of the Congress's 'Bharat Jodo Yatra as per party leaders.
Gandhi last visited Gujarat on May 10 when he addressed tribals in Dahod town. Gandhi's visit to Gujarat comes two days before the party launches the 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' on September 7.
