NEW DELHI: In a major announcement, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal revealed plans for the "Pujari-Granthi Samman Yojana," a scheme aimed at honouring temple priests and Gurudwara granthis with a Rs 18,000 monthly honorarium. This initiative, which Kejriwal claims is the first of its kind in India, was unveiled as a tribute to the cultural and spiritual custodians of Delhi.
Addressing a press conference, Kejriwal emphasised the pivotal role of priests and granthis in maintaining societal traditions. "Priests are there for us in every moment of joy and sorrow... they have preserved our values, rituals, and cultural heritage," Kejriwal stated, acknowledging the community's often overlooked contributions.
