As the Delhi Assembly elections draw near, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is set to release its much-awaited poll manifesto, the 'Sankalp Patra,' today at 2 PM. BJP National President JP Nadda will present the manifesto at a press conference, revealing the party's key promises ahead of the elections scheduled for February 5, 2025.
Sources within the BJP suggest the manifesto will prioritize women, the underprivileged, and senior citizens, introducing several welfare-oriented schemes aimed at addressing their concerns. Among the flagship proposals expected in the Sankalp Patra are:
- Rs 2,500 monthly “Mahila Samman Rashi” for women across Delhi to provide financial support.
- 300 units of free electricity for every household in the city.
- Housing schemes for slum dwellers, focusing on improving living conditions.
- Free bus services for women to ensure safer and more accessible transportation.
- Pilgrimage tours for senior citizens under a special scheme.
These promises align with BJP’s strategy to cater to diverse sections of society, addressing economic, social, and safety-related concerns. Party officials have stated that the manifesto reflects extensive feedback from Delhi voters, aiming to resonate with their aspirations.
The upcoming Delhi Assembly elections are shaping up to be a high-stakes contest between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), BJP, and Congress. While AAP, led by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, seeks to retain its stronghold, the BJP is focused on making significant inroads by offering a blend of welfare measures and development promises.
