Rahul leads Congress protest over u-turns by government

Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi Tuesday led a protest by his party outside parliament, accusing the NDA government of making u-turns on important policy issues.

Accompanied by other Congress parliamentarians, Rahul Gandhi walked over to Mahatma Gandhi's statue at the parliament house complex and held copies of a pamphlet released by the party.

Titled "6 Mahine Paar, U-turn Sarkar", the pamphlet lists 25 matters on which the Congress says the government has changed its stand in its six-month rule.

According to the Congress, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) misled voters by making false promises and that it has now retracted on delivering on these issues.
