The Trinamool Congress has revealed its election manifesto for the upcoming two-phase Assembly elections in West Bengal, featuring 10 key promises. One of the pledges focuses on increasing the monthly allowance under the Laxmir Bhandar scheme for women in the state. If the Trinamool Congress secures a fourth consecutive term, the monthly amount will rise to Rs 1,500 for general category women and Rs 1,700 for those in reserved categories.
The manifesto also includes plans to boost the monthly payment to Rs 1,500 for secondary examination-passed youths aged 21 to 40 under the Banglar Yuba-Sathi scheme until they secure employment. Additionally, the party vows to provide every family in West Bengal with a permanent concrete home if re-elected. Furthermore, a Rs 30,000 crore farm budget is proposed, with a focus on aiding agricultural-dependent families and landless farmers.
Moreover, the manifesto outlines a comprehensive geographic reorganization plan, aiming to establish seven new districts and expand urban local bodies for improved civic amenities. Other promises include uninterrupted pension support for senior citizens, piped drinking water for all households, and transforming West Bengal into a trade hub for eastern India through logistical infrastructure development. The ruling party also pledges to enhance healthcare accessibility and upgrade state-run school infrastructure.
