Delhi BJP chief Vijender Gupta asked whether the beneficiaries of the new programme are economically capable to purchase gas cylinders.
"Poor people cook their food by spending only Rs 150 on kerosene. How will they purchase a gas cylinder of Rs. 400. Kerosene is the cheapest and useful fuel for the poor," he said in a statement.
"At present one cylinder of gas costs Rs 396. If a poor family will spend Rs 396 on one gas cylinder, then how will they run the family?. It is just an election stunt," he said.
