Congress has been clawing back in the former bastion where water supply, road and railway are major demands, and won 5 of its 8 Assembly segments in 2023 polls
The scheme, Mahtari Vandan Yojana , was approved by the state cabinet at its meeting here in the evening. It was one of the key promises made by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ahead of last year s assembly elections.
Besides the AAP, leaders of some smaller outfits either merged their organisations with the BJP or joined it with their supporters as Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai said the entry of all of them will strengthen the ruling party.
