NEW DELHI: Congress Lok Sabha candidate Kantilal Bhuria made a bizarre promise on Thursday as he said that if his party comes to power then whosoever has two wives will get Rs 2 lakh.
Kantilal Bhuria is Congress Lok Sabha candidate from Madhya Pradesh’s Ratlam. He is a five-term member of Parliament and was a minister in the UPA-2 government.
Addressing a rally, Congress candidate from MP’s Ratlam, Bhuria, claimed that women from each household will receive 1 lakh rupees if his party comes into power.
“If Congress comes to power, as our manifesto states, every woman will get Rs 1 lakh in her bank account. Women from each house will get Rs 1-1 lakh. Those who have two wives will get Rs 2 lakh…”
Did Congress manifesto mention giving money to those who have two wives?
The Congress has pledged in its 2024 Lok Sabha election manifesto to introduce the Mahalaxmi Scheme, which aims to provide ₹1 lakh annually to “one woman from poor household” to alleviate poverty. But there is no mention about giving money to those who have two wives.
