AGARTALA, Feb 12 (TIWN): TIWN's public survey on BJP's vision document resulted unexpected outcomes as most of the Tripura's working class and unemployed population unable to believe BJP's tall promises. People questioned BJP's incompetence in Assam and Manipur, also other States where most of the pre-poll promises remained unfulfilled after Poll victory. Narendra Modi Govt's failure to provide jobs in each household in neighboring Assam or providing smart phones to all youths only mimics Arun Jaitley's false promises in Tripura. As per noted Economists, its impossible to provide jobs to each household or provide a smartphone to each 8 lakhs unemployed youths.

Apart from exaggerating promises of free stuff, declaring CBI investigation against Rose Valley Chit Fund scam in front of Sarada Chit Fund scamster Himanta Biswa was a mockery of BJP promises.

BJP's laundry list of promises :

1. One Employment opportunity to every houses,

2. Free Education for women till graduation,

3. 7th Pay Commission to the all Govt employees of the State Govt,

4. Free Smart Phones to Youths,

5. Minimum allowance of Rs. 2000 and a minimum wage of Rs. 340,

6. Investigate Rose Valley Chit Fund scams and punish all the guilty,

7. Provide house to all without brick housing,

8. Free Health Insurance to all BJP households,

9. Provide drinking water to all households,

10. Regularize contractual Govt employees.

CPI-M's reaction to BJP vision document:

1. 'BJP's Vision Document is a FOTKA', says Bijan Dhar to media.

2. Hitting upon BJP's promises of smart-phone 'gifts' to youths after BJP in power, CPI-M State Secretary Bijan Dhar said, "Don't know to whom they are allocating business. May be Jio. However, at the beginning (of Digital era) it would be nice but now all have smart phone. So, gifting of smart-phones will not bring much effects among the youngsters votebanks". 
 
3.  Earlier also we heard many times from anti-CPI-M parties that every families will get a job and thus BJP has kept a similar promise on the top-list. The strategy of providinging each families with job has not been adopted in any state of India, rather under the Central Govt at least 40 lakhs of vacancies are yet left without filling up.
 
4. "Whomever, the Central Govt is now appointing it's per contract basis. Thus what in whole India doesn't have, it will be in Tripura ?"
 
5. The girl-child's free education till College is already here in Tripura. Apart from that the initiatives for water supply, farmers are nothing new. Even though Central Govt has promised to buy agricultural products from farmers at 1.5 times more than the price, but possibility is very less as in many sectors the budget allocation has been reduced.
 
6. Under PMAY 9 % budget has been reduced. MGNREGA funds has been deducted. Thus, all rural developmental promises of BJP is bogus.
 
7. According to Health Insurance's claim, only  480 crores of fund was released and the affect of the budget will come in Tripura soon.
 
8. 7th Pay Commission has not been implemented in many states even after BJP's coming in power and providing 7th Pay Commission has many conditions. 25 to 30 % people will be returned to home and after 2004 who were employed they will not have GPF
