What will you do to help students and elderly people with transport costs?
I will introduce subsidized public transport for students and senior citizens nationwide. I will partner with state governments and transport operators to bring down fares in a targeted way, using digital ID and verification systems to make sure the support reaches the right people. I will prioritize high-traffic urban routes and intercity corridors that students and the elderly use most. This is how we will make mobility part of your wellbeing and opportunity, not a barrier to it.
