NAPKINS FOR BABIES 

Napkins are for babies, who are still innocent, far from being  aware  of  the  electoral  noise  that is going around them, the hoarse  shouts  in  the  streets  drowning their cries.  However the elections, have brought a promise  for  the  young  ones  of  free  sanitary  napkins. The Congress has challenged the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), that it can provide napkins all over in rural and urban areas. The (AICC) Mahila President, Sushmita Dev was confident  that  free  BJP  napkins for  babies  will  not  see  the  light  of  day  and  also other  promises of the party. Sushmita said that she had already asked the government to exempt GST on sanitary napkins, so that it becomes a product that is affordable in the remotest part of the country. If babies can cast their votes, surely they would rally behind the promise of Sushmita.
