 We are walking today in the dusty, very small, narrow lane of the industrial area of Bhawana. Where we are largely the people that we are seeing around us are factory workers who work in the industrial area. They have rubber factories, shuffle factories, cloth factories and that's where most of these people are employed. Today we are talking about the Ujwala scheme that the Modi government had doled out for especially BPL families. And there are many BPL families who are living here approximately over a lakh in this huge area which is also known as the J.J. Colony. My name is Roshan Khatu from Bhawana J.J. Colony. I live in E-212. The Ujwala scheme was launched by the BJP government in 2016, pinning its hopes on electoral success with the upcoming elections. The BJP is really hoping that it brings them electoral dividends from the below poverty line families. The BJP has spent approximately 12,000 crores on this scheme. In a parliamentary question, Piyush Goyal has answered a question stating that the Ujwala scheme has reached over 6 crore families in India and has ended up providing them with free gas connections and a stove as well. The Modi government had said that they are providing us with a free cylinder. We don't have a single free cylinder. We don't have a single free cylinder. If we were to get Rs.1650, we wouldn't have given us a single free cylinder. We don't have a single free cylinder. There are many women like them who are still sitting on their shoulders. These women were promised by the Modi government that they will be provided with free gas, stoves and cylinders under the Ujwala scheme. We realised that there would be no more cylinders for the gas. We had to pay Rs.20,000 to get a single free cylinder. We had to pay Rs.1650 for the stoves and the stoves. This was the only way to get Rs.1650. When you felt the form, where did you go? Did it happen easily? We had a lot of pressure. A lot of people were called in one day. Okay. We had a lot of pressure. It took 3-4 days to get it. When did you get it? I got it from Ujwala. After that, when you got the cylinder, did you pay for the first cylinder? I paid 1650 rupees only. After that, what did you have to do? After that, I had to book in. When I got the cylinder, I had to pay for the gas. How much did you pay for it? I kept on doing it. How much did you pay for it? It was 650 rupees. 650 rupees. Did it cost you? How did you use it before Ujwala? It costed me 420 rupees. After that? I had to pay 650 rupees. I kept on paying for it. I had to pay 900 rupees. I had to pay 1050 rupees. Today, I have to pay 750 rupees. In talking about the scheme, it becomes important to understand where the money is coming from. In a parliamentary reply, Dharmendra Pradhan himself had admitted that Rs 9,968 crore are coming from the people themselves. He had also gone on to state that the subsidy that people are enjoying under the scheme is primarily coming out of the security deposit that people had paid. Earlier, over 1 lakh crore people had also given up on their LPG subsidies. If one goes by the data which is being provided by Bharat Gas and Indane, it becomes clear that Rs 3690 crores are being saved by the government. If one adds up the previous figures and this figure, it becomes clear that over the cost of Rs 13,000 crores are being borne by the people themselves and not really the Modi government. When you got to know about the scheme, you filled your form in the scheme. Yes, I did. The lane that we are seeing behind us, full of these women, and they have just told us, they have gone back to the previous systems of cooking that they were already using. You tell us, Kamma ji. She is telling me that I have received a chechula from my name. After coming, she told me that you are here. We went there. We received a chechula from our name. We did not receive it. She said that when the Modi government says that you will do the scheme, we will call you after that. After that, we go back and forth. We don't know what to do from there. We don't have any money. As we have seen today, the connections are not coming for free and women, particularly from the below poverty line families who are factory workers are having to prove that this is inexpensive and a very complicated task. Forcing many of these people to actually buy the connections in black, costing them about 7000 rupees. They are doing so only to free themselves from the administrative hustles that come with the BJP's electoral gimmick.
