He highlighted that significant change has been brought out in the health field. He further added that to empower women economically, a monthly financial assistance of Rs 1000 will be provided to women of the general category and Rs 1,500 to women belonging to the Scheduled Caste category. In the education sector, crores of rupees have been spent to transform government schools. He added that government jobs have been given without any recommendation or favouritism.
