New Delhi, January 21
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday released its second manifesto for the upcoming Delhi 2025 Assembly elections, pledging free education from Kindergarten to Postgraduate levels for underprivileged students in government institutions. BJP MP Anurag Thakur emphasized that the party would also provide one-time financial assistance of ₹15,000 for competitive exam preparations and reimburse travel and application fees for students.
“The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has pledged to prioritize public welfare and maintain a zero-tolerance policy on corruption if elected in Delhi,” Anurag Thakur said. Highlighting the Modi government’s achievements over the past decade, he said that the BJP eliminated middlemen in public schemes through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) initiatives.
“Our government will address health, traffic, electricity, water, and transport issues to provide a better today and tomorrow for Delhi residents,” he said.
Emphasizing the party’s developmental track record in BJP-ruled states, he said public welfare has always been the focal point. “With cooperation from states, the Central government has not only resolved citizens’ problems but also enhanced facilities nationwide,” he added.
In addition to it, BJP chief JP Nadda on last Friday introduced measures aimed at women’s empowerment, including ₹2,500 monthly support under the Mahila Samridhi Scheme if the party wins. The manifesto also proposed a ₹500 subsidy on LPG cylinders and free cylinders during Holi and Diwali celebrations.
Nadda assured voters that existing welfare schemes in Delhi would continue but with improved execution. He criticized the AAP-led government for corruption and pledged reforms to address these issues. He also promised to implement the Ayushman Bharat scheme for 51 lakh Delhi residents who were previously excluded under the AAP administration, with an additional ₹5 lakh coverage. Highlighting BJP’s track record of fulfilling promises, Nadda pointed to the completion of 499 out of 500 promises made in 2014 and 225 out of 235 in 2019, noting that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had set a new standard in transforming manifestos into actionable resolutions.
