The BJP manifesto echoed the development mantra by excluding implementation of freebies. Devoid of free schemes, the Sankalpa Patra, aimed at achieving the 5 trillion-dollar economy in India.
The electorate anticipated that the BJP would splurge on freebies for getting voted to power a third time, but their expectations were watered down. It did not mention of any freebie, except for free ration which was being implemented since Covid-19.
The Mudra loans and self-employment schemes also were restricted to subsidies. Neither did it mention of farm loans waiver or a hike in the Anganwadi salaries. The scrapping of CPS or according legality to MSP were also ignored.
The schemes already being implemented would be continued and a couple of others like Surya Ghar Yojana, special houses for the differently-abled would be implemented on a subsidy (not for free). In addition, the BJP also promised to provide security to NRIs across the globe.
The BJP manifesto should be an eye opener to all other political parties in the country and it is a good precedent by the national party, ahead of the general elections, felt political analysts and economists.
