Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee (UPCC) President Raj Babbar releasing the poll-related document that focuses on women in a big way, said the party would distribute cycles to girl students.

Babbar said the party was committed to safety and honour of women and on being voted to power it would open three women police stations in every district.
