Madhya Pradesh Election 2023: AAP's 'Guarantees' To Voters

If elected to power, the AAP has pledged to establish high-quality schools for free education, provide free medical treatment including tests and surgeries costing up to Rs 20 lakh in hospitals, and grant an unemployment allowance of Rs 3,000 per month to jobless youths. The party further commits to offering free electricity for consumption up to 300 units, with uninterrupted 24-hour supply. AAP has promised to waive electricity bills due until November 30 should they come into power.

Furthermore, Kejriwal stated that the AAP government would regularise the employment status of workers engaged in temporary or contractual positions, citing successful examples from Delhi and Punjab, where AAP currently holds power.

The party's agenda also includes a commitment to eradicating corruption in Madhya Pradesh and simplifying bureaucratic procedures, ensuring citizens no longer need to make multiple visits to government offices for services such as obtaining ration cards or licenses.

Regarding elder citizens, AAP pledged to implement a "teerth darshan yojna" (pilgrimage scheme), allowing elderly individuals to visit their chosen pilgrimage destinations. The AAP government, if elected, plans to offer an honorarium of Rs 1 crore to soldiers and constables who lose their lives in the line of duty. A separate announcement pertaining to farmers and tribal communities will be made once a comprehensive plan is formulated.
