Bharatiya Janata Party(BJP) spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi on Friday said that the true face of the Congress party with regard to the poor farmers of the country has been exposed through the fact that several hectares of agricultural land were destroyed to facilitate party vice-president Rahul Gandhi's rally in Karnataka.

"Rahul Gandhi is on a tour of Karnataka. He has said that he will soon announce good news for farmers, but instead, we see the harvested crops of the farmers destroyed just before his rally,"Trivedi told ANI here.

"He(Rahul Gandhi) goes on a world tour to gain knowledge, and at the same time, promotes poverty tourism. In the last 10 years, they have only seized the land of the farmers. This is the true face of Rahul Gandhi and the Congress party," he added.

 

Trivedi was countering Gandhi's claim of Modi preferring to go abroad rather than visiting the homes of poor farmers.
