The BJP has promised free 'Nandini' brand's milk for those below the poverty line in Karnataka if it retains power in the state, weeks after a political row erupted over dairy giant Amul's entry into the state.
Here are five big election promises of the BJP:
The BJP has promised to launch the 'Poshane' scheme under which those in the below poverty line (BPL) category will be given half a litre of 'Nandini' milk every day and 5 kg monthly ration kits.
It also promised to give three LPG cylinders for free to the BPL families during the month of Yugadi, Ganesh Chaturthi and Diwali.
In its election manifesto named 'BJP Praja Pranalike', the BJP said it will establish 'Atal Aahara Kendra' in every ward of every municipal corporation to provide affordable and quality food across the state. BJP chief JP Nadda today released the party manifesto for the May 10 elections.
The BJP, which is currently in power in Karnataka, also promised to implement the Uniform Civil Code in the state based on the recommendations of a high-level committee to be formed for the purpose. It also promised introduction of the National Register of Citizens and "speedy deportation of illegal migrants."
The BJP also promised to build 10 lakh houses for the homeless under the 'Sarvarigu Suru Yojane'. It said it will also launch a scheme to provide a matching deposit of up to Rs 10,000 on five-year fixed deposits made by SC/ST women.
