 "Priyanka takes jibe at Modi, warns against concentration of power")
Targeting Narendra Modi, Priyanka Gandhi today warned against concentration of power in one person.
A day after breaking her silence on the continued "political" attacks on her husband Robert Vadra, the Congress star campaigner maintained that personal attacks should be avoided in electioneering and focus should be on real issues affecting the people.
"If all power is concentrated in the hands of one person, is it a good thing? Or should people have power?" she asked while campaigning for her mother Sonia Gandhi here.
Taking on the BJP, she said they "spread hatred" while Congress promises development.
"These elections are about unity and strengthening the identity of India. When you go to vote then think what type of politics you want...The divisive one, which spreads communalism or the one which takes everyone togther," she said.
Addressing a corner meeting at Sijaur in Unchahar Assembly seat in the Parliamentary constituency, Priyanka said that by implementing the Right to Information, Congress showed how corruption could be removed.
"Opposition parties talk about removing corruption, but they must also tell how they are going to do this. By implementing RTI, Congress showed them the way. Congress stopped corruption by implementing RTI," she said.
"People come amongst you to campaign, you must ask tham what they were doing for development. What they have done for you. They come, deliver speech, but don't tell what they will do for you," she said.
