Shimla, August 31 (Press Ki Taquat)
The BJP today asked Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi, who would visit Himachal shortly, to ensure that her promise of Rs 1,500 per month made to the women of Himachal in the run-up to the Assembly elections in 2022 was fulfilled.
The BJP leaders said the women were hopeful of getting the monthly assistance on Rakhi, but the government once again disappointed them. The women in the age of 18 to 60 years were waiting for the Congress to honor its commitment of a monthly assistance Rs 1,500.
In a statement issued here today, BJP general secretaries Sikander Kumar (Rajya Sabha MP), Trilok Kapoor and Bihari Lal Sharma said it was high time that Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu honored the commitment made to 22 lakh eligible women of the state.
