Dear Friends,
Following are the Key Points of BJP's Manifesto for the ongoing General

kg.

percent interest to poor vendors.
ECONOMY GROWS, INDIA PROSPERS:
1. Generate employment through massive public spending on infrastructure
projects. Complete the implementation of Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s dream
projects: National Highway Development Project by building 15-20 km of new
highways every day; and Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana, to link all villages
with over 500 people by all-weather road.
2. Exempt personal Income Tax for those earning up to Rs 3 lakh per
annum. For women and Senior Citizens, the exemption will be Rs 3.5 lakh per
annum. This will benefit over 3.5 crore people.
