New Delhi: Just ahead of her swearing-in as Delhi’s new Chief Minister, CM-designate Rekha Gupta made a significant announcement, assuring that the BJP government will fulfill its poll promise of providing ₹2,500 in monthly financial assistance to women. She confirmed that the first installment will be credited to beneficiaries’ accounts by March 8, marking International Women’s Day.
The BJP had pledged this scheme in its manifesto to outmatch the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) proposal of ₹2,100 per month if re-elected. Gupta, who was unanimously chosen as the BJP legislature party leader on Wednesday, emphasized her commitment to delivering on promises.
“Fulfilling the dream of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the responsibility of all 48 BJP MLAs in the capital. We will definitely fulfill all our promises, including financial support for women. Women will 100 per cent get monetary support in their accounts by March 8,” she declared.
