As the controversy over Priyanka Gandhi's 1000 buses for migrant labourers continue to rage between Congress and BJP, Congress MLA Aditi Singh has hit out against her own party.

Rebel Congress MLA from Raebareily, Aditi Singh, who was earlier known to be close to the Gandhi family has once again targeted her own party over the bus row in Uttar Pradesh. Aditi Singh has said most of the buses that were supposed to be sent for the migrant labourers are smaller vehicles and asked what cruel joke is this.

In a tweet, Congress MLA Aditi Singh has said, “What is the need of such low level of politics at the time of a disaster. A list of one 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 cruel joke this? If there were buses then why did you not send them to Rajasthan, Punjab and Maharashtra?”

Adding fuel to the controversy, Congress MLA Aditi Singh also said, “Where were the so-called buses when thousands of children from UP were stranded in Kota, then the Congress government could not leave these children at home, could not even leave them at the border. Then Shri Yogi Adityanath ji spent the night to bring them back on buses. Rajasthan CM himself also praised it.”

आपदा के वक्त ऐसी निम्न सियासत की क्या जरूरत,एक हजार बसों की सूची भेजी, उसमें भी आधी से ज्यादा बसों का फर्जीवाड़ा, 297 कबाड़ बसें, 98 आटो रिक्शा व एबुंलेंस जैसी गाड़ियां, 68 वाहन बिना कागजात के, ये कैसा क्रूर मजाक है, अगर बसें थीं तो राजस्थान,पंजाब, महाराष्ट्र में क्यूं नहीं लगाई।, महाराष्ट्र में क्यूं नहीं लगाई।

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।

THE BUS CONTROVERSY

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi offered to send 1,000 buses to ferry thousands of stranded migrant labourers wanting to return to their native places in Uttar Pradesh. After a war of words erupted between BJP and Congress, UP CM Yogi Adityanath accepted the offer and asked Gandhi to send the buses to Noida and Ghaziabad by Tuesday afternoon.

Soon, ministers and officials of the UP government said many of the registration numbers of the buses sent by Congress were of two-wheelers, three-wheelers or fake numbers.

FIR AGAINST CONGRESS LEADERS

Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh Congress president Ajay Kumar Lallu and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra’s secretary were booked by police Tuesday after the UP government said the list of 1,000 buses contained registration numbers of autorickshaws, cars and trucks.

The Congress rejected the UP government claim on its list containing the numbers of other vehicles, challenging it to conduct a “physical verification” of the buses.

Later, a state government spokesman said about 100 vehicles on the Congress list were not buses.
