Punjab BJP Launches Awareness Campaign on Employment Scheme
The BJP in Punjab is starting a big awareness campaign from January 7th.
They want to tell people about a new law that guarantees more jobs for poor people.
Before, people were promised 100 days of work, but now it's 125 days.
The new law also makes sure that if people don't get their promised work, someone will be held responsible.
The BJP says this is a good thing for poor people.
But some other political parties, like AAP and Congress, are saying bad things about the law.
The BJP thinks these parties are just trying to cover up their own mistakes and are spreading false information.
So, the BJP wants to tell everyone the truth about the new law.
The Punjab BJP will launch an awareness campaign from January 7 to inform the public about the Viksit Bharat -- Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G RAM G) Act, 2025.
The campaign will start in Fazilka district and highlight the increase in guaranteed employment days from 100 to 125.
The new scheme includes accountability measures for cases where work is not provided to laborers, ensuring wages reach their bank accounts directly.
The BJP alleges that the AAP government and Congress are opposing the scheme and spreading false information.
The campaign aims to counter opposition propaganda and inform the public about the benefits of the new law.
