Ahead of the impending polls in Rajasthan, Rahul Gandhi, the former Congress president, emphasized the party's profound comprehension of the state's requisites. Expressing assurance in the efficacy of their promises, Gandhi conveyed a resounding message to Rajasthan, affirming that every concern finds resolution within Congress's commitments.
In a poignant message shared on social media, Gandhi asserted, "We've absorbed and comprehended every heartbeat of Rajasthan. Each pledge from Congress is a bespoke remedy to your dilemmas."
Spotlighting the party's commitments, the Member of Parliament from Kerala's Wayanad elucidated, "When Rajasthan inquired about access to expensive medical care, our Chiranjeevi scheme offering free treatment up to Rs 50 lakh alleviates all anxieties. Understanding that a farmer's defeat stems not from their lineage but their financial burdens, we've pledged interest-free loans up to Rs 2 lakh."
Furthermore, Gandhi vowed that the women of Rajasthan would not succumb to adversity. "Our commitment of Rs 10,000 annual aid and subsidized gas cylinders will foster financial security in every household," he affirmed.
Promising an inclusive educational landscape, he declared, "Gone are the days when education in English-medium schools remained an aspiration for underprivileged children. It's now a reality; every child in Rajasthan will receive free education in English medium schools. Bridging college students to the digital sphere isn't solely a parental duty. The government will provide free laptops or tablets, acknowledging this contemporary need."
Reaffirming their dedication to continuing the developmental initiatives initiated by Congress in Rajasthan, Gandhi asserted, "The groundwork laid by Congress will be propelled forward at an accelerated pace upon regaining power. Our commitments will be honored."
Meanwhile, Priyanka Gandhi, party general secretary, emphasized, "Empowering the women of Rajasthan through initiatives like free education from KG to PG, providing scooters to girl students, offering financial aid of Rs 10,000 for 10th pass individuals, Rs 20,000 aid for graduates, provisioning smartphones to 1.35 crore women, 90% discount on bus travel, 30% reservation in government jobs, and free sanitary napkins for every woman."
Highlighting the party's electoral commitments, she reiterated, "Our pledges encompass a range of initiatives, including offering Rs 10,000 annually to female heads of households, providing smartphones to them, installing CCTV cameras in public spaces, deploying security guards in every village and urban ward, and ensuring subsidized gas cylinders at Rs 400 instead of Rs 500. These embody the empowerment of women and are the guarantors of Rajasthan's advancement."
The electoral process for the 200-member assembly is slated for November 25, with vote counting scheduled for December 3. The Congress is ardently aiming for a second consecutive term in the assembly elections.
