All political parties have waived about Bihar elections. Various efforts are being made to woo voters. In this sequence, the Congress has made a big announcement for women. The party said on Friday that it will distribute free sanitary napkins among 5 lakh women of the state. However, the NDA has strongly objected due to pictures of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on the packets distributed under this scheme.
In fact, Bihar Pradesh Congress Committee (BPCC) President Rajesh Kumar announced the introduction of this scheme at Sadakat Ashram in Patna. Congress Women Wing National President Alka Lamba was also present on the occasion.
Rajesh Kumar said, “This campaign is under our ‘My Bahn Samman Yojana’, under which women will be given a monthly assistance of Rs 2,500 when coming to power. In this episode, we are giving free sanitary napkins to women of the state.”
He also showed napkin packets in the press conference, which had pictures of Rahul Gandhi.
NDA accused of accused
On the other hand, a round of allegations and counter-allegations has also started. NDA component JDU’s MLC and spokesperson Neeraj Kumar reacted sharply to this. He said that the Congress has learned the way of lustful politics from its coalition partner RJD. Our leader Nitish Kumar has been working for the empowerment of women for years. But the Congress has hurt the dignity of women.
At the same time, BJP spokesperson Kuntal Krishna accused the Congress of using sensitive issues for electoral gains. He said that the Bihar government is already running many schemes for women. This move of the Congress shows its ideological initiative. Rahul Gandhi and his party lack glory, and flatter is paramount.
Alka Lamba Reversal
On this entire controversy, Congress leader Alka Lamba wrote on X (East Twitter) that in today’s modern era, there is no question as to why there is a photo of Rahul Gandhi on sanitary napkins. The real question is why the daughters of Bihar are still forced to use pieces of clothes during menstruation, due to which they fall ill. The BJP has always been a victim of anti -women mindset.
