Lucknow, 16 May (HS). Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar, while addressing a press conference at the state Congress headquarters, said that since the formation of the government, we have been giving 10 kg of food grains to poor families every month in Karnataka. One crore 20 lakh women are being given Rs 2000 per month under Griha Lakshmi Yojana. We are giving 200 units of free electricity to 1 crore 50 lakh families under the Grah Jyoti Yojana. Unemployment allowance of Rs 3000 per month is being given to the unemployed people of the state.
We had promised Shakti Yojana in which we are providing free bus travel to the women of the entire state. Shivkumar said that during Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra itself, we had made up our mind that we have to help the people of the country. During that time Priyanka Gandhi came to Bangalore and told us that you people should do something for women and this is how Griha Lakshmi Yojana was born. Priyanka Gandhi told us and Siddaramaiah that today the Bharatiya Janata Party is making false promises to the poor, to the farmers, to the youth, due to which apathy is growing among the people towards political parties and she asked me and Siddaramaiah to give guarantees in the interest of the people of Karnataka. Took a promise and made us sign that guarantee.
During the Karnataka Assembly elections, we distributed that signed guarantee card from door to door and we promised the public that we will fulfill the promises we are making to you in this guarantee card. . Today it has been almost a year since the Karnataka government came into power and we have fulfilled almost all the guarantees.
During the press conference, Karnataka Rajya Sabha MP GC Chandrashekhar, national spokesperson Abhay Dubey, Uttar Pradesh Congress Media Chairman Dr. C.P. Rai, National Coordinator Garima Mehra Dasauni Chitra Batham, State Congress Committee spokesperson Susthi Biswas, Dr. Alimullah Khan, Priyanka Gupta were present.
