The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) has rolled out its manifesto ahead of the November 20 Maharashtra elections. The agenda promises a slate of social welfare programs, including free cervical cancer vaccines for girls aged 9 to 16 and additional leave for women employees during menstruation.
Notable pledges include a caste-based census, financial aid to women, and safety policies under a 'Nirbhay Maharashtra' initiative. A comprehensive focus on agriculture, employment, urban development, and public welfare forms the spine of the manifesto.
Women's empowerment takes center stage with free bus travel, monthly financial assistance, and a substantial health insurance cover. The MVA aims to reshape industrial policies and improve youth welfare through financial allowances and a proposed Youth Commission.
