While announcing these assurances, Priyanka also took a potshot at the BJP and accused it of never fulfilling its promises. She also said that during the Congress rule in Madhya Pradesh, between 2018 and 2022, her party did “a lot of work and development”. She also warned people against falling for the BJP’s “false” promises, dubbing Chief Minister Chouhan a “ghoshna veer (an announcement king)”. “He has made 22,000 announcements in all these years. If he had only given 22,000 jobs, it would have benefited him… Of all his announcements, only 1% have been fulfilled,” she said.

Priyanka also pointed out that the newly formed Congress government in Karnataka is already on its way to implementing all the five schemes that were made during the campaign. On Sunday, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah launched the Shakti scheme in which women and transgender persons can travel for free in government buses, other than in luxury and AC classes. The launch came just days after the Karnataka government announced that the Griha Jyoti scheme — free power of up to 200 units to all households — will be launched on August 1 and the Griha Lakshmi scheme — Rs 2,000 for one woman in every household — on August 17-18.

Apart from Shakti, Griha Jyoti and Griha Lakshmi, the other planned schemes in Karnataka are Anna Bhagya, in which 10 kg of food grains will be given to every member of a BPL household and Antyodaya card holders, and Yuva Nidhi, in which unemployed youngsters who graduated in 2022-23 will be provided with an unemployment dole of Rs 3,000, and diploma holders Rs 1,500 — for 24 months from the date of registration.
