Rahul Gandhi: Respect is more important than development

"I was told a similar incident occurred earlier (2006) at the same place. It means the government did not respect the people who died in 2006, and they do not respect the people who died here Sunday," he said.

Terming the Shivraj Singh Chauhan government in Madhya Pradesh as corrupt, Rahul Gandhi said,"There is no employment in Madhya Pradesh, the factories which were functioning here were also shut down. They (BJP) have a habit of signing MoUs (memorandum of understandings) and that's that, how many people here have got employment though MoUs?" he asked.

"Madhya Pradesh has become the university of corruption," said Rahul.
