New Delhi: The BJP on Sunday released its election manifesto for the October 21 Haryana assembly polls and said this was a “commitment paper” that represented all sections of society.

It also pledged to give interest-free crop loan of up to Rs 3 lakh to farmers. “It is a commitment paper and it is a serious and studied document. A lot of effort has gone into its preparation. This is a pragmatic and practical paper,” BJP national working president J P Nadda said while addressing the media here. “This commitment paper represents all sections of the society.
