The Statesman

November 10, 2024

Reiterating his promise of "khata-khat" (instant) transfer of Rs 2,500 monthly allowance to women, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said that the next INDIA bloc government in Jharkhand will restore the pride of tribals and also lift the 50 per cent cap on caste-based quota.

Addressing an election rally in Baghamara in Jharkhand, Gandhi slammed BJP for neglecting tribals and said that its government works only for businessmen and does not waive loans of farmers, workers and labourers.
