Rahul promises aid to Bundelkhand region

New Delhi, July 31: Rahul Gandhi today said Congress will do whatever that is required for the people of Bundelkhand.

AICC general secretary, who recently a led delegation of MPs from Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh demanding a package for Bundelkhand, said his concept is clear that no region from both the states or for that matter any other region of the country should be left lagging behind.

“We have submitted a memorandum to the PM (on Bundelkhand). Discussion is going on the issue and we will see how can we do it. No region of UP and MP, Orissa or any region can be left lagging behind,” Gandhi said.

He acknowledged that people of Bundelkhand are suffering from non-development and said he is aware of problems in the UP part of Bundelkhand much better.
