‘Despite challenges Cong govt implemented guarantees'
Mysuru: The Congress govt in Karnataka completed two years in power, and they effectively delivered the five guarantees to the people as promised, said
Pushpa Amarnath
, vice president of the
Guarantee Schemes Implementation
Authority.
Despite numerous challenges and objections from opposition parties, the guarantees were successfully executed, benefiting 70 million residents, she said here at the Zilla Panchayat auditorium on Friday. Those who opposed the guarantees are now implementing them in other states, she claimed.
For women, these guarantees brought a second wave of independence, Pushpa claimed. The Shakti scheme allows them to move freely and fearlessly without any restrictions. The Anna Bhagya scheme alleviated hunger for millions. The Gruha Jyoti scheme is lighting up every household. The Yuva Nidhi scheme is a ray of hope for unemployed youth. The
Gruha Lakshmi scheme
enabled women to build self-reliant lives, she added.
In light of the govt completing two years in power, a Sadhana Convention is scheduled in Hospet on Tuesday.
AICC president Mallikarjun Kharge
will inaugurate the convention, and all-party leaders, including chief minister Siddaramaiah, will participate. Presidents and members of the guarantee schemes committees from the eight districts of the Mysuru division will also attend, she said.
