Union Minister Smriti Irani Saturday accused Congress chief Rahul Gandhi of "disgracing" his Lok Sabha constituency and "crushing the dreams" of its people over the past 15 years
Addressing an election meeting here, Irani said, "Rahul Gandhi has humiliated and disgraced Amethi... if the intention of a leader is good, it ensures speedy development of the area."
Calling the Gandhi family "dynasts", she said, "The 'naamdar' have been crushing the dreams of the people of Amethi for the last 15 years and still consider the people of the constituency as their slaves."
Trying to strike an emotional chord with the gathering, she said, "I am a mother of two kids... I take care of my parent and in-laws, work at a ministry and despite losing (the last election) I have been coming here continuously to serve you all and Amethi."
