Ahead of the Goa election, the TMC has promised a scheme as per which a monthly sum of Rs 5,000 will be transferred to one woman in each household of the state. On Sunday, Rajya Sabha MP P Chidambaram tore into the TMC over the proposed scheme.
After Rajya Sabha MP P Chidambaram tore into TMC's Rs 5,000-for-women electoral promise in Goa on Sunday morning, TMC's Goa in-charge Mahua Moitra said the scheme was "perfectly doable" and needed.
The MGP, which had won three seats in the 2017 polls to the 40-member Goa assembly, is currently left with only one MLA after two of its legislators joined the ruling BJP.
