The ruling BJP in UP as well as the Centre has been attacking the Congress claiming that it has not developed the country in the past 70 years.

Responding to questions on the two year report card brought out by the Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh, Ms Gandhi Vadra said: "They (BJP) need to come to the ground to see the reality. This report card and publicity looks good, but the reality is different... All sections are feeling harassed".

 "There is a big difference between polls promises and fulfilling them. As far as the rant about (no development in) 70 years is concerned, it also has an expiry date. You (BJP) are in the government for the past five years, what have you done in five years?" she said.
