New Delhi:
The BJP today released its much-delayed manifesto on a day India began voting for a new government in the first of a nine-phase general election spread over 36 days.
Here are the key points of the BJP manifesto
"Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat" (One India, great India) and "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikaas" are the main slogans of the BJP manifesto.The main thrust of the 40-page manifesto is economic revival and development for all, two dominant themes in the campaign of the party's prime ministerial candidate, Narendra Modi.The manifesto also mentions the BJP's old promise for a Ram temple at the disputed site of the razed Babri mosque in Ayodhya. It calls for the building of a grand temple at the site "within the Constitutional framework."The manifesto addresses issues of policy paralysis, system reforms, corruption with Team India as a concept, said the BJP.
Sources say the manifesto was delayed till the very last minute because Narendra Modi wanted the document drafted by veteran leader Murli Manohar Joshi to be reworked for "greater clarity and sharper focus."
