Thiruvananthapuram: Asserting that inclusive growth will remain as central plank of UPA, Congress President Sonia Gandhi today said it was in tune with this concept that the government had launched a series of welfare programmes and legislative initiatives, especially for the weaker sections.
“Inclusive growth is the policy of the UPA. We want everyone to march together to make a new India. No one should be left behind or sidelined on account of religion, class, caste or creed,” Gandhi said while launching a scheme of the Kerala government providing land to all landless families.
She said the UPA was committed to carry forward the legacy of former premiers Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi to build the modern India based on the principle of social justice by providing basic facilities to everyone.
Gandhi said the UPA under Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's leadership had introduced a host of welfare schemes including the Food Security legislation with this goal in mind.
