The "Ghar Ghar Guarantee" initiative is built around "Paanch Nyay," or five pillars of justice, namely "Yuva Nyay," "Naari Nyay," "Kisaan Nyay," "Shramik Nyay," and "Hissedari Nyay."
The Congress's manifesto would focus on the five "nyays" under which it has made 25 guarantees.
The guarantees include 30 lakh central government jobs, Rs. 1 lakh a year for woman in every poor family, insurance payment within 30 days of crop loss, and a stable import-export policy to benefit farmers, among others.
