‘There is nothing to fear about the scams or the controversies coming out in media, but you should work for the people and aware them about the right thing,’ he said while admitting that there are some government lapses which has depressed the rank and file.
‘It was just a media hype about the scams when in reality nothing such things happened,’ he further claimed.
Addressing the delegate conference of the UP Congress Committee (UPCC), Singh asked the workers to ‘launch’ a campaign for the 2014 Lok Sabha elections to that the party could win maximum seats in the state. He also suggested that to revive the party in the state,the Vidhan Sabha candidates for 2017 elections should be announced now so that they could get enough time to work for the people.
Mr Singh admitted that restriction on subsidized LPG cylinders had given a negative popularity to the party and now Government has decided to increase this cap to nine cylinders and very soon an announcement would be made in this regard while the demand of the party is one cylinder at least every month.
