Speaking at a presser, Rathore refuted Gehlot’s claims about Mukhya Mantri Chiranjeevi Swasthya Bima Yojana benefitting people at large. Rathore claimed that less than 100 patients in the state have received assistance of Rs 20 lakh insurance.
He said, “The health scheme given by the Gehlot government has the central government’s contribution too. They (Union) give 60% share, but the Congress government does not tell this openly to the public,” Rathore.
He reminded the people of the state of free smartphone yojana which was announced in the 2022 budget. “He made a budget provision of 2500 crores for 1.33 crore phones. If a smartphone costs at least Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000, then the budget has to be Rs 20,000 crores. This is yet again going to be a fake and false promise,” said Rathore.
He said “Many schemes of the state government are being run with the help of central government. He (Gehlot) never says this to the public. But this public is educated, understands everything.”
