Suvendu Adhikari government 100 days: schemes fast, policies slow
Fast on schemes, slow on policies: Janakalyan shibirs to enrol more beneficiaries - Telegraph India · telegraphindia.com

A new government in Bengal just finished its first 100 days of work.

The leader, Suvendu Adhikari, says they have started almost all the help programs they promised.

They will hold special camps called Janakalyan Shibirs so more people can sign up for help.

The government is giving ₹3,000 every month to many women.

Women can also ride state buses for free.

Families can get medical help of ₹5 lakh every year.

The government gave land to the Border Security Force to build a fence near Bangladesh.

But the government has not yet made big plans for factories and jobs.

Making these plans is important for the state to grow.

So people are watching to see what happens next.
