Jaipur (Rajasthan) [India], January 13 (ANI): Reacting to Congress and Aam Aadmi Party contesting against each other in Delhi assembly elections, Congress leader Sachin Pilot on Monday said that his party is providing an alternative to the people of the national capital, which he said has been restricted to allegations and counter-allegations between the BJP and ruling AAP.

“Every party fights the elections to win. We are presenting our ideas and roadmaps in front of the people…The elections in Delhi are getting limited to the politics of allegations and counter-allegations between BJP and AAP…Congress is giving an alternative to the people…INDIA Alliance is strong and remains so, but we take our own stand in different state elections…The public will make the decision…” said Pilot.
Earlier on Sunday, Pilot unveiled the party’s ‘Yuva Udaan Yojana,’ a scheme aimed at providing Rs 8500 financial assistance and skill development opportunities for unemployed educated youth in Delhi.
“In preparation, we are presenting guarantees for the citizens. Under the Yuva Udaan Yojana, our party has decided to provide Rs 8,500 per month to educated but unemployed youths in Delhi for one year. This support is not limited to financial assistance; we aim to connect these individuals with industries aligned with their training to secure long-term employment opportunities,” he said.
