• Rahul Gandhi not merely criticizing, but demanding change: Sh. Sukhu
Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu has expressed his strong support for Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha and senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s concerns about the monopolization of the market by a few companies. The Chief Minister said that Rahul Gandhi’s stance is not just criticism but a call for significant and essential reforms. He stated: “The Congress Party’s ideology has always been rooted in providing equal opportunities to all citizens, ensuring fair distribution of resources and prioritizing public welfare within the nation’s economic structure. Rahul Gandhi has raised this serious issue boldly and clearly, which resonates with the concerns of every citizen in the country.”
The Chief Minister further said that a healthy competitive market would not only keep prices in check but also improve the quality of services and products for consumers. “The union government needs to look at this sensitive issue from a perspective that transcends party lines and prioritises national interest,” he said. He remarked that Rahul Gandhi’s questions regarding the monopolization of the market by some large corporate groups are crucial for the welfare of every citizen. Rahul Gandhi’s comparison of such monopolistic practices with the East India Company highlights the potentially dangerous consequences for the nation’s economy and social fabric, he added.
“Rahul Gandhi is the voice of the nation. His concerns are not only valid but also deeply aligned with the welfare of the common citizen. The union government should adopt a positive approach and take necessary steps towards policy reforms that serve the public interest,” CM Sukhu asserted.
The Chief Minister stressed that Rahul Gandhi is not merely raising objections but is advocating for transformative change. His views and suggestions are eye-opening for citizens across the country. If the central government truly seeks to work in the public’s best interest, it should seriously consider these suggestions and adopt robust policies to reduce economic disparity. The Chief Minister also added that such issues warrant a nationwide discussion so that people remain aware of their rights and benefits, ensuring equitable economic empowerment for all.
