AIMIM 40-point action programme for MUMBAI city...!!!

MUMBAI: MIM on Saturday came out with a "40-point action programme for the city". MIM has no manifesto for the polls.

The plan includes laptops for Class VIII students; construction of Urdu and Marathi Bhavan; and coaching and training of Muslim youths to make them employable in the police force.  

However, the party has scaled down on the purified drinking water promise. While the MIM recently announced that his party would provide 20 litre drinking water for Re 1, the programme paper says "BMC will be asked to set up mineral water plants in slums to provide 10 litres of purified drinking water to each family" . The party also promises a meal for Rs 5 for the poor. "Our programmes are doable and practical," said MIM legislator Waris Pathan.
