Chandigarh, February 22
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, while criticizing the opposition, said that nepotism and regionalism were widespread in previous governments. He pointed out that development projects were only carried out in areas where the Chief Minister hailed from, leaving other regions neglected. The BJP government has worked to eliminate these practices at their roots. The current government is committed to ensuring equal development across all areas, with the pace of progress accelerating statewide. No area remains untouched by development, with the construction of a robust road network underway.
The Chief Minister made these remarks while addressing the gathering at a function held in Barara, Ambala district, on Saturday.
Saini further said that the “double-engine” government at both the Centre and the state is ensuring equal distribution of development across Haryana. He assured that there is no dearth of funds for these initiatives. In addition, he highlighted that the youth are now securing jobs that align with their qualifications, and their trust in the government has grown significantly.
He said that the resolution set by Prime Minister Sh Narendra Modi to transform India into a developed nation by 2047 must be fulfilled. Today, citizens are directly benefiting from the welfare schemes of both the Central and State Governments. People’s lives have become more convenient, as they no longer have to stand in long queues for services. The online process has introduced transparency, ensuring timely delivery of benefits to the public.
