In an apparent bid to assuage his feelings following Rahul Gandhi’s denunciation of the government, Congress Chief Sonia Gandhi today praised Prime Minister Manmohan Singh saying schemes launched under his “able leadership” have helped millions of people from the marginalised sections.

On a two-day visit to Kerala capital, Gandhi lauded welfare and social security schemes for marginalised people initiated by the UPA Government while inaugurating a research centre set up by her party’s Kerala unit and a major free health scheme of the Congress-led UDF Government in the state.

“They (marginalised sections) faced discrimination at every level. The UPA government led by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has lifted million of them through its flagship schemes,” she said at a function at Neyar Dam about 30 km from here.

Lauding the Oommen Chandy Government in the state for coming out with the ‘Aragkaykiran” scheme for children below 18 years, she said the project was in tune with the health and welfare schemes implemented by the UPA Government under the “able leadership of Prime Minister Manmohansinghji.”
