While Addressing function at the Sarusajai Sports Complex, Gandhi said that, “"I have decided to launch the 'Aam Aadmi ka Sipahi' programme here because the Youth Congress and the NSUI here are very strong and are popular among the masses."
Rahul said a membership drive has been launched to recruit 20 lakh youths across the country to be sent to villages to work for villagers and the poor.
They will bring the Youth Congress and the NSUI into focus and they will inform villages under the 'Aam Aadmi ka Sipahi' programme about government schemes such as NREGA and others.
The Youth Congress' work for the common people had started from Punjab with 3.5 lakh members, would be spread to the rest of the country, Rahul said.
