Former PM H.D. Deve Gowda comes down heavily on Congress manifesto, questions if Rahul Gandhi is dreaming of a revolution

Coming down heavily on Rahul Gandhi’s proposal for a wealth survey, former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda has questioned if the Congress MP is dreaming of a revolution.

Addressing mediapersons in Hassan on April 24, Mr. Deve Gowda said, “Does he think he is a Maoist leader? Is he dreaming of a revolution? Earlier, land reforms were introduced in India. Now they are proposing to distribute wealth, including gold.”
