Jaipur, March 4: Terming the rule of Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje as ‘Hitler-esque’, the Congress on Tuesday asked the people of the state to ‘uproot the feudal ruler for whom power is a game and hobby’.

“Vasundhara Raje has no belief in democracy but in ‘Hitler-shahi’ as a result of which 44 people, mostly farmers, have become victims of police firing incidents during her over four years of misrule,” AICC general secretary Mukul Vasnik told a party rally here.

“Vasundhara ke haath khoon se range hain. Voh apradhi hai. Ek bhi din satta mein rehne ki hakdar nahin. Use uski sarkar se ukhad phekna hain (Vasundhara’s hands are blood stained. She is a criminal and has no right to stay in power even for a day. Her government should be uprooted),” he said.

According to Vasnik, Raje is not committed to the social uplift and development and power is a “game and hobby” for her.

Former chief minister and AICC general secretary Ashok Gehlot alleged Raje had flared up the religious factor and divided the society on caste lines by leading the Gurjar-Meena caste clashes that left 26 Gurjars dead last year.

He said Raje was promoting people like BCCI vice president Lalit Modi (also president of Rajasthan Cricket Association) to “overpower the bureaucratic set-up and strike huge land deals”.

“Conspiring with BSP, she is dividing the society specially among the poor upper castes,” Gehlot alleged.

He urged partymen and voters of the state to unitedly stand against the government and defeat its feudalistic aim.

Sonia- the real Fascist from Italy by Vidhur on 05 Mar 2008

Italian National Christian Congress, INC, leader Antonia Mainoa alias Sonia Khan fake Gandhi is the real Fascist from Italy. Antonia's Father was a volunteer in Mosolini's Fascist party. Slave Congressmen, you can't hide the truth by verbally bombarding BJP. Nation and its people awakened now. Days of fooling the nation using Gandhi and Nehru names are gone.
