00:00 Namaste! You didn't wait long!
00:05 I was always a Congressman and I will always be one.
00:08 No matter what happens.
00:10 We have never been sad in the Congress rule.
00:13 We can sacrifice for them.
00:17 Today, poor people are not able to buy vegetables.
00:24 25 rupees per kilo has become a potato.
00:26 A lot of people are very, very angry with Smriti Rani's lack of work and lack of appearance in their particular villages.
00:35 Congress opened a railway station here, built a power house, built a railway, built a Ganga bridge.
00:43 They gave employment to the poor, hospitals, everything was given by Congress.
00:49 They ruined everything.
00:51 The roads here were not good, that's why they built them.
00:56 Now, they have been running it for 10 years.
00:59 Who has been given this ration?
01:02 Today, this ration is being given for 5 kilos.
01:05 Who gave it? It was given by Congress.
01:08 If Congress had put a new system here, there would have been no Aajpa Bhajpa here.
01:14 There was no one.
01:16 Congress did everything, they created a barren land, and today they are eating it.
01:25 Whether you like it or not, Hindus and Muslims are not concerned about them.
01:32 Some are fighting, some are fighting, some are fighting, some are fighting, some are fighting.
01:39 People are being killed, some are dying of corona, some are dying of illness.
01:45 This is not the situation we are in.
01:47 We are old, this is not the situation we are in.
01:51 But even if we earn and eat, the animals are free, nothing happens.
01:55 What can we do?
01:57 In such an expensive place, we don't get vegetables and other things.
02:01 For us, it's a mountain.
02:03 My name is Sarv Jabbar.
02:05 I am a resident of Belakhara.
02:08 I do this business.
02:10 I sell this in the evening, by setting up a shop.
02:13 There are so many animals that even if a person sleeps in the fields, he cannot get a pot.
02:18 They have made a cow shed.
02:23 The cow shed is just a name.
02:25 The wool is sold, it comes, it is sold on the way.
02:30 They say that cow killing is happening.
02:36 The most cow killing is happening now.
02:38 The animals are dying.
02:40 In the cow shed.
02:42 They dig holes in the cow shed and pull it out and put it in.
02:45 There is no sign of Muslims, sir.
02:48 The chaos that happened just now, the people have been put in jail for 8 days.
02:53 I have spent 5,000-6,000 rupees in poverty, what did I get in bail?
02:58 In the face of rising unemployment, rising inflation, stray animals coming and destroying their crops
03:08 and all of that have completely ravaged their lives.
03:11 They don't think these welfare schemes work for them as much as they think they should have.
03:17 Because instead of being supplemental to the government's initiatives about combating inflation and unemployment,
03:25 they have become the only thing.
