Rahul Gandhi dedicates Amethi hospital to grandma Indira

The Amethi-Rae Bareli belt in Uttar Pradesh has always been special to the Nehru-Gandhi family as their traditional constituencies -- from the days of Indira Gandhi to her grandson Rahul.

Some politicians' lust for power had hampered development in the state, Sonia said in her speech. It was a veiled attack on the Samajwadi Party-led Mulayam SIngh Yadav government.

Sonia said every citizen had the right to basic needs like roads, power, water and healthcare and asserted that the government and the administration [in UP] lacked commitment towards the common man and the fulfilment of the goals of development.
