New Delhi. On the last day of campaigning for the sixth phase of the Lok Sabha elections, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi entered Delhi. Rahul Gandhi participated in a town hall program in the North-West constituency of Delhi on Thursday. This program was organized in Delhi’s Mangolpuri. In this town hall program, the Congress Party’s Nyay Sankalp Patra discussed the Mahalaxmi scheme including 5 guarantees under Mahila Nyay. Let us tell you that in this program, Rahul Gandhi patiently listened to the questions of the women and answered them. Along with this, the women were also told about the facilities that will be available in future if the Congress Party forms the government.
During the discussion with women, Rahul Gandhi said that today everyone talks about backward, tribal, Dalit, minorities but no one talks about women. I have come here to talk about you, with you, about you. This is a time when both men and women work in fields, labour, companies, call centres and other fields. In big cities, men and women do not have any problem of money in companies, but when both come home in the evening after working, the second shift of women starts. Cooking food, taking care of children, women think about the future of the family, save money.
Rahul Gandhi’s first election program was in Delhi
Rahul Gandhi said, ‘While men work for 8 hours, women work for 16 hours. We have come up with a scheme for you to work for 8 hours extra. Mahalakshmi Yojana. He said that if we give 1000 rupees to a woman and 1000 rupees to both men, most of the men will spend it immediately. But women will spend 1000 rupees thinking of saving it for their children’s education and future. Women think better about saving money than men.’
Rahul Gandhi held a town hall show with women in the North-West seat of Delhi.
Rahul Gandhi said that under the Mahalakshmi scheme, the government will send Rs 8500 per month or Rs 1 lakh per year to the women living below the poverty line in India in their accounts on July 5. This process will continue every month until the family comes above the poverty line. A woman can make the family financially capable.
Rahul Gandhi said that we will give 50 percent jobs to women in Lok Sabha, Vidhan Sabha, government jobs, public sector, hospitals, educational institutions, private institutions. Till we do not get participation of women in politics, corporate, public sector, judicial system, the country cannot progress. The most important thing is that women should become MLAs, MPs, ministers and till women do not become MLAs and MPs, your voice will not reach the top. You got a place in the Pradhani post in the Panchayat, we will send you to Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha, Vidhan Sabha. We will ensure that there are 50 percent women in every field.
Rahul Gandhi organized several programs on the last day of election campaign in Delhi.
She has been an old worker of Mahila Congress
When the Town Hall program was ending, Rahul Gandhi recognized an old worker of the Congress Party. Rahul Gandhi called the woman on the stage and introduced her to Delhi Congress state president Devendra Yadav. When News 18 Hindi talked to a Delhi Congress leader about that woman, his reply was, ‘Rahul Gandhi was talking to PCC President Devendra Yadav about that woman. During this, Rahul Gandhi said that this is our old worker, you should include her in the organization also. I have seen him in many programs in Delhi.
