If there is no provision in the budget then where will Rs 1500 come from: Jairam

BJP’s Leader of Opposition and senior leader Jairam Thakur said that the Chief Minister of the state has once again tried to mislead women. Just as the Congress party came to power by lying, similarly the promise of giving ₹ 1500 to women from the next financial year is also false.

He said that the budget has been passed and this announcement has been made 6 days after the passing of the budget, but if there is no provision in the budget then how will the announcement be made.

The code of conduct will be imposed on April 1, after that, where will the women get this ₹ 1500? According to the 2011 census, there are 38 lakh women in Himachal Pradesh and the number of women between 18 to 60 years is 22 lakh. According to today’s announcement, According to this, only Rs 800 crore will be distributed at Rs 1500 per woman, which is calculated to be only 5 lakh women.

Social Security Scheme is running in Himachal Pradesh in which the total number of beneficiaries is 783000 in which the number of women is 4 lakh 55000. So is the Chief Minister only talking about distributing this amount to 5 lakh women?

This type of announcement has been made as per the plan just before the Lok Sabha, which means this announcement has been made only keeping the Lok Sabha elections in mind, but now all the sections of Himachal Pradesh have lost confidence in this government.

He said that in Himachal Pradesh, 22 lakh women were promised ₹ 1500 per month, on which the expenditure for one month is ₹ 330 crore, which clearly means that this government is only trying to mislead women.
