Mizoram Election 2023: BJP Releases Manifesto, Promises 33% Reservation For Women In Govt Jobs

JP Nadda, during the release of the BJP Manifesto, said the party would set up a Mizoram Olympic Mission.

BJP president JP Nadda released the party's 'vision document' or manifesto for Mizoram assembly election on Friday, promising a Mizoram Sports Academy with scholarships for aspiring athletes and 33 per cent reservation for women in government jobs. Speaking at an event in Aizawl, Nadda said the BJP would also set up a Mizoram Olympic Mission.

"Many political parties come out with their vision document, their mission document, their manifesto, but we find them to be a mere piece of paper because even they are not very sure whether they are going to pursue that, vision or mission or commitment. But when BJP go for a vision document, it is a well-researched document. It is a document which always undertakes and undergoes, the financial part of it...Our people have done detailed research on it, and then they have come out with this vision document," ANI quoted Nadda as saying.

He said: "We believe in report card politics. The political culture of the country has been changed by Prime Minister Modi. Initially, people used to fight elections on the basis of religion, caste, creed, area, and region. These were the factors, and they used to collect votes. And there was the politics of the vote bank, which we called 'vote bank politics'. But since Prime Minister Modi has come, the definition of politics has changed. Now the definition of politics is politics of performance, politics of accountability, politics of development, politics of developing every area, every region, each caste, and every creed. There should not be any gender discrimination. There should not be any caste discrimination. There should not be any regional discrimination. And with that, we have worked and gone forward."

Nadda further said that the BJP will establish a special investigation team to probe all irregularities and corruption in the implementation of Socio-Economic Development Programme. "We will collaborate with the Central government and Assam government to resolve the long-standing border dispute and safeguard the interests and rights..."

Nadda said that India was considered to be a fragile economy. "Today, even the best economic leaders are of the opinion that India is the only bright spot, and it is a stable economy which is going forward. Countries like America, Australia, Japan, and Europe, are having problems with their economies. But the IMF says that India is a stable economy and the fastest-growing economy. All this has happened in the past 9 years," Nadda said.

Mizoram will go to polls in a single phase on November 7.
