New DElhi, Feb. 23 -- AAP leader Atishi on Saturday wrote to CM Rekha Gupta, seeking a meeting with the AAP's legislative group on Sunday to take "concrete action" in the implementation of the scheme providing Rs.2,500 to eligible women every month.

Atishi said the BJP failed to approve the scheme in its first cabinet meeting despite "PM Modi's promise". "On behalf of the millions of women in Delhi, I humbly request you to take some time from your busy schedule to meet us so that we can present our case for concrete action on this scheme," she wrote. Delhi BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor said the government will "soon fulfill its promise." htc
