Raebareli: Congress MLA from Raebareli Aditi Singh has slammed her own party over the ‘1000 buses’ row in Uttar Pradesh. She asked the Congress party the need for petty politics at the time of disaster.
In a tweet in Hindi, she said, “What is the need of such low level of politics at the time of a disaster. A list of 1,000 buses was sent and more than half of the registration numbers were fake, 297 were junk buses, 98 were autorickshaws and vehicles like ambulance, 68 vehicles were without any papers. What a cruel joke this is! If there were buses then why did you not send them to Rajasthan, Punjab and Maharashtra?”
In the subsequent tweet, she targeted Priyanka Vadra asking, “where were these so-called buses when thousands of children from UP were stranded in Kota, forget about helping them to reach their homes. The Congress government could not even leave them at the border. Then Shri Yogi Adityanath Ji spent the night to bring them back in the buses. Rajasthan CM himself also praised it.”
कोटा में जब UP के हजारों बच्चे फंसे थे तब कहां थीं ये तथाकथित बसें, तब कांग्रेस सरकार इन बच्चों को घर तक तो छोड़िए,बार्डर तक ना छोड़ पाई,तब श्री @myogiadityanath जी ने रातों रात बसें लगाकर इन बच्चों को घर पहुंचाया, खुद राजस्थान के सीएम ने भी इसकी तारीफ की थी।

Priyanka Vadra had wrote to UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on May 16, seeking his permission to let Congress party ply 1,000 buses to carry migrants back to the native place. The UP government thus accepted the request on Monday, asking them to send the buses to Lucknow by 10 am on Tuesday.
However, the Congress party said that they could send the buses only by 5 pm. Meanwhile, UP Minister Sidharth Nath Singh revealed that many two-wheelers, auto-rickshaws, and good carriers were in the list of buses submitted by the Congress party. He called upon Congress president Sonia Gandhi to explain why they were committing this “fraud”.
