What the four main parties promise in Uttarvan: jobs, water and roads

The Progress Alliance, the People's Front, the Green Fields Party and the Civic Reform League released their manifestos this week.

All four put jobs and drinking water first. Road repairs and school buses follow.

Only the Civic Reform League gives a cost estimate for each promise; the others say details will follow.

Why it matters

• Jobs and water top every manifesto.
• Two parties promise free bus travel for students.
• Only one manifesto gives a cost for its promises.

This is a demo story: every person, party, place and figure in it is fictional.
