Priyanka Gandhi said Congress wants to build four English-medium schools in every Assembly constituency and fight the menace of drugs.
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Friday said her party will provide 1 lakh jobs, restore the Old Pension Scheme and provide financial assistance of Rs 1,500 to every woman in the state if it is voted to power in the upcoming Assembly polls.
Addressing a rally in Kangra, Ms Vadra said the Congress will also fight the drug menace, which is ruining the future of the youth and build English-medium schools in every Assembly constituency.
She also targeted the state government, saying the state has "drowned" in debt under the BJP dispensation and 63,000 government posts are lying vacant.
Citing the work done by the Congress in Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan, the only two states where the party is in power on its own, Ms Vadra said her party will fulfil its promises in Himachal as well.
