BJP Manifesto Prioritizes UCC Implementation and Northeast Peace in Lok Sabha Polls

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has unveiled its election manifesto, titled “Sankalp Patra,” which outlines several key promises and the party’s vision for the nation. The manifesto was released at the BJP headquarters in New Delhi, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh in attendance.

Uniform Civil Code (UCC) and Gender Equality

One of the significant pledges in the manifesto is the commitment to implement the Union Civil Code (UCC), aimed at ensuring gender equality. The BJP emphasizes that women’s rights cannot be fully realized without a common legal code. The party intends to draw upon the best traditions and modernize them to harmonize with contemporary times.

Peace in Northeast and AFSPA Phase-out

The manifesto also focuses on maintaining peace in the Northeast region and gradually phasing out the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act (AFSPA). The BJP aims to address issues in disturbed areas and resolve inter-state border disputes through sustained efforts.

Transparent Public Exams and Recruitment

Efforts to prevent paper leaks and ensure transparent public exams are also outlined in the manifesto. The BJP vows to strictly implement laws to prevent misconduct in recruitment exams and fill government vacancies in a time-bound and transparent manner.

Youth Empowerment and Education

The manifesto underscores the importance of empowering youth and enhancing education opportunities. The BJP pledges to develop an integrated education framework under the National Education Policy (NEP), offering high-quality education, world-class sports facilities, employment, and entrepreneurial opportunities to young citizens.
