The State Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) president, Adesh Gupta, on Saturday said the party has launched the programme of free pilgrimage for senior citizens and women in the Capital.
He said this pilgrimage will continue for next three months in which senior citizens and women will be taken to various religious places including Haridwar, Vrindavan, Khatu Shyam, Shri Balaji and Ayodhya among others.
“During the COVID period due to being confined within four walls of their homes, women went through a lot of mental tension and problems. It is to give them some kind of relief that the party has decided on this programme,” Gupta said and thanked the local councilor Anju Aman Kumar.
“Ten buses have been sent from here Saturday to different religious places,” he said, “Our idea is to send 100 buses each for different religious destinations from one ward each.”
