Madhubani (Bihar), Aug 26 ( UNI) Congress general secretary and Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra today warned people against the attempts of theft of their votes by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), saying it may end up in taking away the very basis of their citizenship and right to various welfare schemes and employment.
Addressing a public meeting during the tenth day of the ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’ Vadra reminded people here, “When Prime Minister Narendra Modi was telling you during the parliamentary elections that the Congress will steal your buffaloes, he was actually stealing your votes himself at the time”.
She said, the BJP had not only stolen the votes of people, it had also stolen their jobs and big public sector companies.
Priyanka said the BJP had committed theft at every level.
Cautioning people against letting their votes be stolen, she said, not only is the vote the foundation of democracy, it is the identity of the people.
She warned them if today their vote is stolen, tomorrow their citizenship might be in danger.
Priyanka said, they will not remain entitled to various welfare schemes of the government.
Vadra got a thumping response from the crowd who repeatedly cheered as she was speaking.
