Just two days ahead of the first phase of Lok Sabha elections, Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Monday announced that if his party is voted to power, he will drop the fee on applications for government examinations and jobs.

He also shared the policy of his party related to public health, stating that he will bring a new law "Right to Health" for all citizens of the country. "We will increase the budget on health to three per cent of gross domestic product (GDP)," Gandhi said.

Gandhi has already announced the waiver of interest on all education loans till March 31, 2019, if his party is voted to power in the Lok Sabha polls.

Earlier on April 2, while releasing the manifesto for the Lok Sabha polls, Rahul Gandhi said: "The party plans to open avenues of employment and provide new ways to keep the youth engaged."

He further added the Congress will fill all 4 lakh vacancies in the Central government and institutional vacancies before March 2020.
