Union Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat said, "This manifesto will act as govt's vision document for the next 5 years, we made this manifesto after consulting lakhs of people in Rajasthan. Those who have committed corruption will have to pay back, corrupted people will be exposed. our prime goal is to recover all that money and give it back to the poor people."
Shekhawat was speaking to journalists after the release of BJP's manifesto 'Aapano Agranee Rajasthan Sankalp Patra 2003' on Thursday.
He further said, "BJP's manifesto has been prepared in accordance with public sentiments after speaking to lakhs of people. It has been prepared in a balanced manner to increase income and employment in Rajasthan."
BJP President CP Joshi alleged that the Congress govt could not provide protection to the women of Rajasthan and the BJP will ensure that women get proper safety.
He said, "This manifesto is a holy book for us. Congress govt couldn't protect the women of Rajasthan so the BJP has promised female police station and, anti-romeo desk in the manifesto. In the 5 years, there has been a record corruption, the money that should have been used for the development of Rajasthan, went to the pockets of Congress leaders so this money must come back to govt so that it can be used for the development works. There will be an investigation to recover this money."
