contents <p>The culture of freebies is nothing new. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru won the first Lok Sabha<br>elections in 1952 with a sizable majority. The practice of political parties offering free rations<br>and midday meals in schools to entice votes began in the 1960s. Later, in the 1980s, the parties<br>pledged to offer free televisions, sarees, Chapple’s, and other items to entice voters during<br>elections. These days, political parties have made promises to provide five guarantees namely<br>free bus travel for women (Sakthi), free rice distribution (Anna Bhagya), 200 units of free<br>electricity (Gruha Jyothi), Rs. 2000 per month to women (Gruha Laxmi), and Youth fund for<br>unemployed graduate’s (Yuva Nidhi). In this project proposal, we will discuss Freebies in<br>Karnataka and Siddaramaiah, the burden on state finance, how freebies are affecting economic,<br>growth of India.</p>
