Political Row Over Unfulfilled Promise of Women's Aid Scheme in Delhi

AAP leader Atishi has requested a meeting with Delhi CM Rekha Gupta to address BJP's unfulfilled promise of providing Rs 2,500 monthly aid to women. Despite PM Modi's assurance, the scheme was not approved in the first cabinet meeting, causing dissatisfaction among Delhi's women who trusted the promise.

AAP leader Atishi has reached out to Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, urging a meeting to discuss the BJP's unimplemented promise of providing Rs 2,500 monthly aid to women. This pledge was made during their election campaign.

Atishi's letter questions why the scheme was not sanctioned in the initial cabinet meeting, despite Prime Minister Modi's assurances. Delhi BJP's media head, Praveen Shankar Kapoor, has assured that the BJP intends to honor its commitment.

Kapoor criticized the AAP government's failure in Punjab regarding a similar promise. Meanwhile, CM Gupta and her ministers have been sworn in, following BJP's decisive election victory.
