Congress leader Pratibha Raghuwanshi has criticized Union Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya's statement referring to the 'Laadli Behna' scheme as something other than charity. Raghuwanshi accused the BJP of divisive politics and violating the constitution's spirit.

Congress leader Pratibha Raghuwanshi has strongly reacted to statements made by Union Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya regarding government schemes, particularly the 'Laadli Behna' initiative. Raghuwanshi asserted that the scheme is not a form of alms, directly challenging the minister's remarks.

Raghuwanshi further alleged that such statements by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are contrary to the fundamental principles enshrined in the Indian Constitution. She accused the ruling party of engaging in divisive politics through its public pronouncements and actions.

The Congress leader's sharp response underscores a political disagreement over the interpretation and intent behind popular welfare programs.
