The manifesto, released by Madhya Pradesh Congress chief Kamal Nath in the presence of senior party leaders, including former Chief Minister Digvijaya Singh, made "101 main guarantees," including continuing the Jai Kisan Agricultural Loan Waiver Scheme to waive off farmers' debt up to Rs 2 lakh, providing domestic gas cylinders at Rs 500, and making school education free in the state.
"Madhya Pradesh is the state of farmers. The Congress government will buy paddy at Rs 2500 per quintal; we will buy wheat at Rs 2600 per quintal," Kamal Nath said.
Under the Indira Grih Jyoti Yojana, 100 units of electricity will be provided free, and subsequent 200 units will be provided at half rate, the party said. It promised to enact a 'Right to Health' law.
