AAP leader Rituraj Jha and a group of volunteers staged a protest against the BJP-led Delhi government’s sluggish progress in rolling out the Mahila Samriddhi Yojana. The demonstrators urged the government to fulfill its commitment of providing Rs 2,500 to women beneficiaries by March 8. In response, BJP MP Manoj Tiwari declared that the registration process for the scheme would kick off on March 8, with the distribution of funds to ensue shortly after. The Mahila Samriddhi Yojana aims to empower women by providing financial assistance, and the AAP leader’s criticism underscores the growing impatience regarding the program’s implementation. The clash between the two political parties over the initiative highlights the significance of women’s welfare schemes in the political landscape of Delhi. The development comes amidst a backdrop of escalating tensions and competitive posturing in the run-up to the upcoming elections. The dispute over the Mahila Samriddhi Yojana reflects the broader ideological differences between the AAP and BJP, particularly concerning social welfare policies. As the deadline approaches, all eyes are on the government to see if it will meet the demands of the protesters and deliver on its promises to support women’s financial independence through the scheme.
