The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) launched an online portal, aapkibachat.com, on Sunday, allowing Delhi residents to calculate their savings from the free welfare schemes provided by the AAP-led government.
Announcing the launch at a press conference, AAP national spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar said, "For the people of Delhi, we are introducing this new portal where they can check how much they are saving through our free welfare schemes, such as free electricity, free water, and more."
Kakkar claimed that the AAP-led Delhi government helps residents save a minimum of Rs 25,000 per month through these initiatives.
She further stated that if AAP is re-elected in the upcoming assembly elections, new promises from the party's manifesto -- including free healthcare for senior citizens under the Sanjeevani Yojana, free bus rides for students and a 50 per cent concession on metro fares -- would further increase monthly savings by Rs 10,000.
