Media in India are highlighting Congress party leader Rahul
Gandhi's "emotional speech" ahead of key elections in five
states.
Mr Gandhi spoke of the assassination of his grandmother Indira
Gandhi and father Rajiv Gandhi - both former prime ministers in his speech at a rally in the northern state of Rajasthan on
Wednesday.
"Rahul Gandhi raised an emotional pitch addressing two rallies in
poll-bound Rajasthan, portraying himself as a victim of the
'politics of hatred', adding he could be assassinated like his
grandmother Indira Gandhi or father Rajiv," says The Economic
Times.
"I understand the pain of losing someone very close. My father
too was killed… Anger over violence is natural but it only hurts
common people. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP - India's main
opposition party) makes use of people's anger," the Hindustan
Times quotes Mr Gandhi as saying.

11. The CNN-IBN website says "taking a look at Mr
Gandhi's election rallies over the last few weeks, it
seems the Congress leader has ensured he re-visits
his past and recounts emotional anecdotes".
 Newspapers say Mr Gandhi's strategy is largely aimed
at voters in rural and tribal areas.
 "Mr Gandhi's aim it appears is two fold: to strike a
direct connect with his audience, mainly in rural and
remote areas, who have in the past been strong
voters of 'Indira Amma' (Mother Indira) and evoke
the 'sacrifice' that his family has made for the
nation," says The Business Standard.
 But media say it's too early to analyse the impact of
his emotional pitch on voters.
 "Wednesday was the perfect day for him to try out
his (new) strategy. But on the basis of evidence at
hand, it is difficult to know if it worked," the First
Post website says.

2. It is my dream that we should be a nation supplying arms to
the world. A Global 'supplier' not a 'buyer'
3. It is not enough to build buses. Making sure the conductor
behaves well with the people is what constitutes good
governance.
4. Government, cannot change the nation. It is people who must
bring about real change. Many people sacrificed their lives for
the freedom struggle. But when Gandhi ji said, every work
people do is for the nation, that spirit of community made India
a free country. Similarly, Government, cannot change the nation.
It is people who must bring about real change. The Sujalam
Sufalam canal project included meetings with farmers and they
were given charge of various aspects of the project and the
work was completed in 2 years.

Government. In Gujarat, development is a combined effort.

electricity. We told farmers to stop relying on electricity.
We told them they don’t need electricity, they need
water. Today, farmers in Gujarat have started thinking of
agriculture as irrigation-based.
7.Our mindset is our biggest problem. Why can’t we see
every challenge as an opportunity?
8. Bureaucratic mindset during British rule was to keep
the empire happy. Today we are an independent country
and our bureaucrats need to work for the people and not
the Government.
