In a bid to woo women voters, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Wednesday announced a host of poll promises for the Bihar elections, including a monthly salary of Rs 30,000 for Jeevika CM (Community Mobilisers) Didis.
“Once we form our government, Jeevika CM (Community Mobilisers) Didis will be made permanent and a salary of Rs 30,000 per month will be given to them. The interest on the loans taken by Jeevika Didis will be waived off. For the next two years, Jeevika Didis will be given interest-free credit. Jeevika Didis will also be given an additional Rs 2,000 allowance. All Jeevika Didis will get insurance worth Rs 5 lakh…” said RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav.
“They distributed Rs 10,000 under the Mai Bahin Maan Yojana for the women of Bihar, which is a bribe. This is a loan, Amit Shah himself said it. This means that they will recover this money. Today, we are going to make another historic announcement,” Yadav said.
“All of you are aware that injustice has been done to the Jeevika Didis under this government. We have decided that all the Jeevika CM (Community Mobilisers) Didis will be made permanent and will be given the status of government employees. We will also increase their salary to Rs 30,000 per month. This is not an ordinary announcement. This has been the demand of Jeevika Didis for years,” he added.
Tejashwi Yadav announced that the future Mahagathbandhan government will waive the interest on loans taken by Jeevika Didis and will be given interest-free credit for the next two years.
“Any work that happens in villages or cities is not possible without Jeevika Didis. However, they don’t get anything. This is why it is our responsibility since this government doesn’t cater to them. The suffering of people doesn’t affect the corrupt officials and government,” Yadav said.The Bihar LoP stated that Jeevika Didis will also be provided with an additional allowance of Rs 2,000, and the government will ensure insurance coverage of Rs 5 lakh for all their cadres.The 2025 Bihar Elections will see a contest between the National Democratic Alliance and the Mahagathbandhan. he NDA comprises the Bharatiya Janata Party, Janata Dal (United), Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas), Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular), and Rashtriya Lok Morcha.
