Some Of The Standout Promises include:

Promises For Social Justice And Economic Equality

AJSU’s manifesto also focuses on social justice, economic equality, and the protection of Jharkhand’s unique culture and heritage. Notable promises include:

  • Sarna Dharma Code Recognition: The party has vowed to secure official recognition of the Sarna Dharma Code, which reflects the religious and cultural identity of the tribal communities in the state.
  • PESA Law Implementation: The Panchayats (Extension to Scheduled Areas) Act (PESA) will be strictly implemented to empower local tribal bodies and ensure their rights.
  • Land for Landless People: AJSU aims to distribute land to landless people, ensuring greater equality and self-sufficiency among Jharkhand’s rural population.
  • Industry and Employment: The party promises to establish industries in every assembly constituency, creating job opportunities and improving economic conditions.

In his speech, Sudesh Mahto emphasized that the AJSU Party is committed to fulfilling all promises made in the manifesto using Jharkhand’s internal resources. “We will focus on protecting water, forest, and land through the Dharti Yojana and ensure quick land mutations after purchase,” Mahto said.

Additionally, Mahto expressed his commitment to promoting the Jharkhandi languages—Ho, Mundari, and Kudmali—by advocating for their inclusion in the Eighth Schedule of the Indian Constitution. He also pledged Rs 10,000 per month as an honorarium for Jharkhand movement agitators and offered incentives to cultural workers in the state.
