LJP manifesto
promises modern, crime-free Bihar
Pledging to build a modern and crime-free Bihar if voted to power, the
Lok Janashakti Party in its manifesto on Saturday said it would work
towards forming a "real and secular" government committed to
establishing the rule of law.
The party also offered a slew of sops for the welfare of minorities,
Dalits and other weaker sections of society and bringing a legislation
guaranteeing employment to all within six months of the LJP coming to
power.
"In the event of coming to power the party would build a modern
and crime-free Bihar," LJP president and Union Chemicals and
Fertiliser Minister Ram Vilas Paswan said while releasing the manifesto
at a press conference in Patna.
The LJP would provide 10 per cent reservation to Muslims, who are
educationally and financially backward, on the pattern of that reserved
for other backward castes, he said.
Besides, special budgetary allocation would also be made for all
minority educational institutions and steps would be taken for reopening
the "dead" ones.
He said the LJP government would also set up a full-fledged university
for minorities. |
