Replacing MGNREGA is Historic Mistake, says AICC general secretary Sachin Pilot

The former Rajasthan deputy chief minister also accused the ruling BJP at the Centre of constantly fueling "political vendetta" by falsely framing Congress leaders Sonia



Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi in the National Herald case.

The government of India has made a historic mistake. For the first time in history, since we got independence, a scheme or programme launched after the name of the father of the nation has been changed. The government has single-handedly destroyed the only financial safety net rural India had through an erstwhile programme called MGNREGA," Pilot said.
