The senior BJP minister reiterated the party’s vision for India’s economic growth, highlighting the BJP’s 25-point agenda focused on supporting women and farmers. At the event, Amit Shah stated that the BJP’s manifesto genuinely represents the aspirations of the people of Maharashtra.
The union minister slammed the opposition alliance comprising Congress, Shiv Sena (UBT) and NCP (Sharad Pawar) by saying, “Maha Vikas Aghadi’s schemes are formed in the greed of power, it is appeasement and an insult to ideologies.” Amit Shah further asserted that everyone believes in promises of Mahayuti.
The manifesto pledges 25 lakh new jobs and a ₹10,000 stipend for 10 lakh students. It also promises new roads in over 45,000 villages and aims to reduce power bills by 30 percent, emphasising renewable energy sources.

Reaffirming party’s support for women empowerment, the manifesto features 50 lakh for ‘Lakhpati Didis’ by 2027. After coming to power the BJP plans to introduce AI training in government schools, conduct a skill census, support entrepreneurs, provide financial aid to students from backward communities, and offer health insurance to the public.
