Sep 20, 2024

Kurukshetra (Haryana) [India], September 20 : Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini launched a scathing attack against former Chief Minister and Congress leader Bhupinder Singh Hooda, saying that during his 56-day tenure, he has done more to the people than Hooda in his 10 years as Chief Minister.
"People say that we got less time and I got only 56 days after the Lok Sabha elections. In these 56 days, your brother, your son has taken 126 historic decisions for the development of Haryana," Saini said in a campaign rally here on Thursday.
"(Bhupinder Singh) Hooda says that these are only announcements. I told him that you have been the Chief Minister of Haryana for 10 years. If you compare, then my 56-day tenure will outweigh your 10-year tenure."
Meanwhile, Hooda termed the BJP's manifesto for Haryana Assembly polls a copy paste of Congress' manifesto.
"It is a copy-paste of ours. We have said that theirs are all false promises. Look at our manifestos from 2005 and 2009; we fulfilled all our promises. Look at their manifestos from 2014 and 2019--they did nothing. They made false 'ghoshna patra'. It is a bundle of lies," Hooda said.
On Thursday, Union Minister and BJP President JP Nadda, along with Haryana BJP president Mohan Lal Badoli and Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, launched BJP manifesto in Rohtak, Haryana.
The Bhartiya Janata party promised guaranteed jobs for Agniveers and financial assistance of Rs 2,100 per month under 'Lado Laxmi Yojana'. To boost employment in the state, the party announced that ten industrial cities will be built on the lines of IMT Kharkhoda and more than 50 thousand youth from nearby villages will be given employment.
Under the healthcare initiatives, under Chirayu Ayushman, the amount of Rs 5 lakh received per year will be increased to Rs 10 lakh. The party also promises to offer scooters to college-going female students under the Awal Balika Yojana and LPG cylinders for Rs 500 under the Har Ghar Grahini Yojana.
During the event, Union Minister JP Nadda highlighted key promises from the party's 'Sankalp Patra,' stating, "All women will be provided financial assistance of Rs 2,100 per month under the 'Lado Laxmi Yojna.' Under the Chirayu Ayushman scheme, the Rs 5 lakh you get per year will be increased to Rs 10 lakh. MSP on 24 crops will continue, and we will provide government jobs to 2 lakh youth."
He also assured that LPG cylinders would remain available for Rs 500 to Antyodaya BPL families and guaranteed government jobs for Agniveers.
Voting for the 90-member legislative assembly in Haryana will be held on October 5 and the last date for filing nominations is September 12. Votes will be counted on October 8 along with that in Jammu and Kashmir.
