Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai (Representative Image)
The Congress, Siddaramaiah claimed, had given 165 assurances in 2013 and of them 158 were fulfilled during its five-year-rule
Reacting to Congress leaders saying that they will retire, if unable to fulfill their election promises, Bommai said, 'They themselves are speaking about political retirement, we did not ask for it. If they are themselves speaking about it, it reflects the situation they are in. Like face is the index of mind.'
The Congress has recently announced ‘Gruha Jyoti scheme’, under which all households will get 200 units of free electricity every month and also ‘Gruha Lakshmi scheme’, a promise to provide Rs 2,000 every month to women-led households.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
