The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) on Tuesday unveiled its election manifesto with some populist schemes such as a free washing machine plus a smartphone to every woman and 500 square yards of open plot and 100-year health insurance coverage for all families.
Former IPS officer and the party’s Telangana president R.S. Praveen Kumar, making a presentation at Sundaraiah Vignana Kendra here, announced that the BSP would make youth and student leaders ‘shadow ministers’ if it comes to power. From women to students and overseas workers to the transgender community and the unemployed, the party has come up with specific plans in an attempt to garner their support.
Accusing the BRS government of making the people of Telangana to get addicted to the “90 ml” culture, the BSP State chief said he aimed at giving every family of the State a package of a 100-year health/medical insurance cover. Appealing people to stop consuming liquor and terming it “poison” , he said the BSP government would smash all ‘belt shops’ (selling liquor unauthorised) in the State.
