Pledges of financial aid 'mere poll promises'; Delhi women say voted for education, safety

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 5 February 2025
Many women voters in Delhi prioritized education, safety, and employment over financial aid promises by political parties. While BJP, AAP, and Congress pledged monthly allowances for women, voters like Madhu and Priya Sharma dismissed them as mere poll tactics, demanding real development. Others, like house help Meena Kumari, saw the financial aid as beneficial. The election results on Saturday will decide whether AAP retains power or BJP and Congress make a comeback.
