Mathura:
Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi addresses party workers in Mathura.
Here are the highlights:
Earlier I used to see myself as your leader, but now I have changed I see you all as my family
A general can replace any soldier who is not doing well in his/her job, but as a family member, we have to say we can get this work done by someone else, but you can do some other job better.
My father had the power to not let me speak, but he would still hear me out
The change in viewpoint suggests that even if we do not like anyone, we can't separate them from the family
Sometimes I would agree to my father and sometimes I wouldn't. But whenever I said anything, he would listen to me despite having the power to keep me quiet.
We have to bring unanimity in our thinking, it is brotherhood.
There is not a single person here who doesn't have Congress party in her DNA.That is different whether everyone is focusing on their DNA
It is my job to bring that DNA out in you.
Change your thought process and you will win
We may be the number four party in UP, but we are number one in our ideology. If we can catch our ideology, we will be number one in the state.
Someone asked Steve Jobs, that your company was over, how did you resurrect it. He said when I was small, I had an elderly neighbour. One day he said he wanted me to show something.
He showed Jobs a motor, and showed him stones of different sizes and shapes. He started the motor and put the stones inside and asked him to go.
All the stones were of the same size and shining the next day when he stopped the motor and opened the drum.
The old man said if you put different things in one place and give them time, they all will shine.
That is what I want from you, we are not RSS
Otherwise Mohan Bhagwat would come and say that the sky is black and everyone would have to agree.
I want Khatri Ji and Mistry Ji to start a dialogue.
When someone asks me where I am from, I tell them Allahabad and Kashmir. I feel at home at both places.
Our ideology should be in everyone's heart.
The day that happens, that day the Congress will be back in the country.
I can see the youth, middle aged and senior faces here.
You can call me wherever you want. I will be there happily.
Modi Ji is opposed to the Congress party
When we look at the RSS' ideology, we realise how important is our ideology
He came and promised 15 lakh rupees to every citizen
No one got and will not get any money
He said will increase MSP for farmers, Achhe Din, but farmers are committing suicide in every state
People are abusing Modi Ji wherever I go.
Prime Minister told youth ache din will come and you will get employment, told Army people you will get One Rank One Pension.
Modi ji is doing so much damage to himself that we cannot collectively do it ourselves
We have to make our space, whenever Modi ji goes down, in that space
