"The moment you bring networks together it become exponential. If you use that framework you can see that it is a very powerful framework in politics, in business. The problem is that pretty much all the conversations we are having, about development etc excludes 90 per cent of the community. The really powerful network is sitting outside," Rahul Gandhi said.
The Congress MP said that IT professionals need to apply their knowledge on the 90 per cent of Indians.
"What is the role of technology and IT. It is to apply your understanding and knowledge on those networks. But right now you are this one per cent. You are not able to apply the stuff in this large 90 per cent of India. These networks are not only physical networks. There are caste networks, business networks, agriculture networks in India," Rahul Gandhi said.
In the description of the YouTube video, Rahul Gandhi shared that he had a chat with a group of IT and consultancy professionals from various organisations like Google, KPMG, and Deloitte who joined the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in Uttar Pradesh.

Highlighting the challenges faced by farmers and the MSME sector, Rahul Gandhi said, "On the one hand, our primary producers, India's farmers are being harassed and denied their right to a minimum income; on the other hand, the second level of production, MSMEs suffer the burden of a poorly planned GST and the monopoly of crony capitalists."
The Congress MP who has been at the forefront of the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra said that "encouraging manufacturing" and a "democratic production system" is the key to job creation and boosting our economy. (ANI)
