In addition to this flagship program, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) proposed several welfare measures, emphasizing inclusivity and social security such as the monthly allowance for disabled individuals would rise from Rs. 400 to Rs. 1500, and Widows currently receiving RS. 400 per month would instead receive RS. 1500, the elderly would see their monthly pension increased from Rs.400 to Rs. 1500, and households would receive 200 units of electricity free of charge each month.

Yadav also promised to eliminate the financial burden of high bills linked to smart meters.

Tejashwi Yadav has shown commitment to building a “New Bihar”:

Tejashwi Yadav argued that these initiatives form the foundation of a “New Bihar,” a state driven by equity and empowerment.

This comprehensive vision is an evident bid to connect with various segments of Bihar’s electorate women, the elderly, the disabled, and middle-class households while presenting himself as the torchbearer of change in Bihar’s political landscape.
