Himanta Biswa Sarma on Congress manifesto: 'Seems that they have released it for Pakistan elections'
Himanta Biswa Sarma said that by looking at Congress' manifesto it seems that they have released the manifesto for Pakistan elections. Sarma said, «Their manifesto is all about appeasement. They want to divide the society and come to power. We condemn their appeasement politics. By looking at Congress' manifesto it seems that they have released the manifesto for Pakistan elections.»
The chief minister said, “Today is the foundation day of our party. BJP has worked for the nation. Nation is our Dharma. I invite the people to join the BJP on the occasion of the party's foundation day."
The Congress has promised to abolish the Agniveer scheme, junk the “one nation, one election” proposal, restore the Planning Commission, review GST and the national education policy, implement women’s reservation right away, restore status quo ante on the China border in Ladakh and sack the Manipur government.
The manifesto says: “The situation in Manipur has gone from bad to worse due to the callous neglect of the BJP/NDA government. Congress will remove the present state government forthwith and heal the wounds between the communities. We will appoint a reconciliation commission to bring about a political and administrative settlement that will be satisfactory to all the people of the state.”
The key promises of the 25-point programme are: an MSP law for farmers, Rs 1 lakh to every woman from poor households every year, Rs 1 lakh with apprenticeship to every graduate and diploma holder for one year, minimum wage of Rs 400 per day.
