Mumbai: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi received vivid responses when he asked female voters what they would do with the Rs 3000 the MVA promised to pay women every month. He was referring to the Mahalakshmi scheme proposed in the Maha Vikas Aghadi manifesto for the upcoming Maharashtra Assembly Elections. The video shared by Rahul on X shows him having a candid conversation with women voters.
" I will share it among kids," answered a lady in her middle age. Another woman, a physiotherapist by profession said she would help ladies in remote areas with lesser access to medical facilities. Rahul responded to her saying the MVA manifesto offers medical insurance and free medicines among others in their manifesto.
Hailing the alliance's plan another female voter said that safety, dignity and respect should be ensured in any society. The woman in their middle age shared a memory of being able to see Rahul on TV as a kid and now that she is able to meet him in real. The conversation ended on a light note with the woman teaching some sentences in Marathi.
