They (BJP) could only make 10 rooms in 10 years, but I believe we will build the medical college within 2-2.5 years, we will finish the construction of the medical college. We will work on all the pending projects. The damage that has been done in Kaithal, Congress will restore in its first year and will return to its past glory. We will all do things.
