The party also promised purchase of wheat and paddy at ₹2,500 per quintal, and sugarcane at ₹400 per quintal.
The Congress leader also said that her party would “halve the electricity bill of all”.
She said her party will bring a separate manifesto for women, reiterating that the Congress will give “40% tickets to women in the elections”.
