Speaking further, Sonia Gandhi made an appeal, saying these polls are important for the people since for five years they saw a government that did nothing except create differences among them.
"These polls are important for you as for five years you saw a government that did nothing except create differences among you. Farmers grow crops with a lot of hard work. You neither got paid nor received fertilisers, not even irrigation facilities," she said.
