'It took Rahul 10 months to realise Food Park was cancelled!'

May 18, 2015 16:37

Harsimrat Kaur Badal, Union Cabinet Minister for Food Processing, lashes out at Rahul Gandhi's criticism of the Narendra Modi government over the cancelled food park in Amethi, saying, "Rahul Gandhi was never serious about the food park. It took Rahul Gandhi 10 months to realize that the Food Park project has been cancelled! He doesnt even know the exact place where this Food Park was to be setup in Amethi. The mega food park was a mega lie," she said.

Hitting out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi today said he was visiting foreign countries but not the homes of farmers back home and that he would give "zero out of 10" to the NDA government for dealing with farming community.

On a visit to his Lok Sabha constituency Amethi, Gandhi accused the Modi government of engaging in "politics of revenge" by cancelling a mega food park in Amethi and vowed to fight to get it back.
