"The Congress has announced that if they come into power, they will conduct a comprehensive survey of individuals' properties. This survey will assess the amount of gold owned by women and the financial assets of government employees. Additionally, they have proposed redistributing the gold owned by women equally among them," said PM Modi.

"Mangalsutra and women’s gold cannot be redistributed," said PM Modi, noting that the government has no right to take over people's private property. "The value of mangalsutra and gold owned by our mothers and sisters is priceless, how can Congress make a promise to take over and re-distribute this wealth", he questioned.
