BJP's Delhi manifesto: More gas if voted back to power

NEW DELHI: BJP has promised to reduce power tariff by 30%, combat inflation by lowering vegetable prices, and increase number of subsidised LPG cylinders to 12 in its assembly election manifesto released here.

Nearly five days after AAP and the Congress spelt out their promises, the top brass of the BJP, including Leaders of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha, Arun Jaitley and Sushma Swaraj, ex-BJP chief Nitin Gadkari, and party’s chief ministerial candidate Harsh Vardhan, released the manifesto for December 4 elections.

Vardhan said once the BJP was voted to power, his government would work toward full statehood for Delhi, as many projects hanged in limbo because the Capital does not have a right on their use.
