AAP can't think beyond Rahul Gandhi: Rajiv Shukla

Union Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Rajiv Shukla said Sunday that Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Kumar Vishwas, like the rest of his party, was just unable to think beyond Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi.

He said all AAP leaders do is rubbish Gandhi, who is the focus of all AAP thinking.

"Rahul's sympathy is genuine, and is always with the people of Amethi," Shukla said, adding that the general elections results would make things clear.

"It is quite obvious that Rahul will win the election with a thumping majority, as the people of Amethi love him," Shukla said.

AAP leader Kumar Vishwas, at a public rally in Amethi Sunday, said that the Congress has failed the people of Amethi in Uttar Pradesh. He said Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi had never once raised the problems of his constituency in Uttar Pradesh in parliament.

He said that Rahul Gandhi, prior to elections, spends nights in Amethi to win the sympathy of people in his constituency, but is not interested in solving the problems of the people there.
