Congress party is trying its best to win the Bihar elections scheduled for October or November, 2025. The party has tried to take inspiration from Akshay Kumar-starrer Pad Man. It has been giving sanitary pad packets to women with Rahul Gandhi’s picture on it.
On the cover, it has mentioned the benefits for women and a promise of Rs 2500 for under-privileged women. But the purpose of it seems to have been lost as the drive seems to have boomeranged.
The Congress campaign of ‘mein behen man’ is getting a lot of criticism in the state. Congress is giving away the packs as a promise for women empowerment to the 5 lakh under-privileged women in the state.
The BJP has targeted the Congress for demeaning women with their campaign. Using Rahul Gandhi’s picture is another bone of contention for the opposition party.
BJP national in-charge Pradeep Bhandari posted on X that distributing sanitary pad packets with Rahul Gandhi’s picture was demeaning to women.
However, the Congress maintains that its objective is to empower the under-privileged women. The campaign reflects the self respect and dignity of women they say. It is also a promise of financial freedom for financially deprived women, they insist.
Meanwhile, sitting CM Nitish Kumar has started Mahila Sambhashan to directly reach out to 2 crore women in the state.
