Claiming that SP and BSP neglected UP during the last 25 years of their rule while Congress brought development to the states which voted for it, he said, "Your dreams are small, dream big. "You are asking for less. Demand industrialisation and jobs. You do not lack anything. Ask them to bring Bangalore and Delhi to Bundelkhand.... We will take Bundelkhand forward, but for that the vision should be wide. Strengthen Congress and we will bring change."u00a0

Addressing a party rally here, the Congress Vice President said, "The Central government sent Rs 3000 crore package for the development of backward region of Bundelkhand from the Centre, but its benefit did not reach the people".
