New Delhi, Nov 7 (UNI) Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today launched a fierce attack on the Maharashtra government, alleging that government land reserved for Dalits, valued at Rs 1,800 crore, was sold to a minister’s son’s company for a mere Rs 300 crore, with the stamp duty waived. Gandhi described this as “land theft” sanctioned by the authorities.
In a pointed post on social media platform X, Gandhi said, “This is not only a robbery but a legal stamp of approval on the theft. The Maharashtra government, born through vote theft, continues to loot public resources while relying on stolen votes to stay in power.”
He also called out Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his silence on the issue. “Modi ji, your silence speaks volumes. Are you remaining silent because your government is propped up by those very looters who usurp the rights of Dalits and the deprived?” Gandhi questioned.
The allegations have stirred a debate on governance, transparency, and the safeguarding of marginalized communities’ rights in Maharashtra, putting the spotlight on the need for greater political accountability.
