Original manifesto wording

“हम ₹1,500 करोड़ के निवेश के साथ अन्नदाता शिक्षा प्रोत्साहन योजना के अंतर्गत सभी लघु और सीमांत किसानों, खेतिहर श्रमिकों एवं बटाईदार किसानों के बच्चों को मुफ्त शिक्षा प्रदान करेंगे।”

Our Assessment

The manifesto promised a Rs 1,500 crore Annadata Shiksha Protsahan Yojana providing free education to children of small and marginal farmers, agricultural labourers and sharecroppers. Approved-source evidence found in this pass shows adjacent education-support schemes, including Mukhyamantri Jan Kalyan Shiksha Protsahan Yojana for children of registered unorganised workers. That is not the same beneficiary class or the same farmer-child education promise. No approved-source evidence was found for an Annadata Shiksha Protsahan Yojana notification, budget head, eligibility rule or beneficiary rollout matching the manifesto. The verdict is pending because the exact promise remains unverified. Budget: no dedicated Rs 1,500 crore allocation or utilisation evidence was found.
