He presented an alternative vision which greatly enhances the participation of Dalits, tribals and OBCs, and also ensures the energy and mobility revolution is not given up to the Chinese.Rahul, however, conceded that successive governments, be it the Congress-led UPA or the the BJP-led NDA, have not been able to tackle unemployment and give a clear cut answer to the youth on employment.
