Sonia backs PM, slams BJP for 'making fun' of Manmohan

Gandhi said the Bharatiya Janata Party “divides people” while “we bind the people together”.

She said the BJP tried to scuttle the “historic” food security bill in parliament by saying it was against farmers.

”We are proud of our farmers and farmers will always be the centre of our policies,” she added.

Terming the food security bill, land acquisition bill, RTI and measures to protect interests of women as “historic”, Gandhi said “no other government has achieved what the UPA (United Progressive Alliance government) has been able to in the last ten years”.
