Cong vows sops for out-of-work people

The Congress on Sunday said that it will give ₹8,500 to unemployed educated young people on a monthly basis for one year under a new scheme if the party comes to power in Delhi — its third poll promise in the run up to the February 5 assembly elections.

Congress general secretary Sachin Pilot announced the "Yuva Udaan Yojana", under which, he said, the party will also absorb the workforce trained in their respective industries.

Additionally, the Congress, if elected, will offer one-year apprenticeship to enhance skill development of the youth.

The announcement is the party's attempt to lock down on another key demographic, after announcing monthly financial aid to women, and woo a larger chunk of residents through a health scheme — in an effort to reclaim power in the national capital after 12 years.
