Construct 50 new Samras hostels for marginalised school students
Bharatiya Janata Party · Gujarat Legislative Assembly Election 2022

What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will construct 50 new Samras Hostels to provide state-of-the-art living facilities to meritorious school students from marginalised castes and classes.”
Our Assessment
Samras hostels provide free boarding and lodging, and 2026 admissions were reported across 12 cities. This verifies a functioning residential-education service. The society and much of its network predate the manifesto, while the official portal focuses on higher-education students. Neither 50 additional hostels since the pledge nor the promised school-student coverage has been established.
