Faridabad: Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi today visited the family of two Dalit children who were burnt alive while they were asleep.
The Congress leader reached the home of the Dalit family in Sunped village and met the villagers and father of the two toddlers.
Speaking to media, Rahul said that the Haryana the government is not of the weaker and poorer sections.
"The father says his children were killed for no fault. Their only fault is that they are poor. The family wants a CBI probe. In Haryana the government is not of the weaker and poorer sections," he said.
"This is an attitude shared by the PM, the (Haryana) CM and BJP-RSS. If somebody is weak, they can be crushed. What you are seeing is the result of this attitude!" he added.
When one of the reporters asked him if his visit was a photo-opportunity, Rahul replied, "What do you mean it is a photo-opportunity? It is insulting when they say that. People are dying. I will come again and again."
