Assam polls: Rahul Gandhi promises Rs 365 daily to tea workers

Congress leader and former party president Rahul Gandhi took a pot shot at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said BJP failed to fulfil their promises made for the tea workers over daily wages.

Making a poll promise, Gandhi assured tea workers that after coming to power, Congress government will give them 365 Rupees as daily wages.

"BJP promised Rs 351, but gives Rs 167 to Assam tea workers.

I am not Narendra Modi, I don't lie.

Today, we give you 5 guarantees, Rs 365 for tea workers, we will stand against CAA, 5 lakh jobs, 200 units free electricity and Rs 2000 for housewives," said Congress' Gandhi.
