They said that he told the CMs to set short-period targets for faster results and suggested that targets could also be for three-months.
The sources said that the Chief Ministers expressed their concern at the Congress forcing amendments to the bill aimed at granting constitutional status to the OBC Commission and said that the “anti-poor face” of the opposition party should be exposed by launching a country-wide campaign.
The meeting also discussed ways to achieve other targets of achieving New India by 2022, the 75th anniversary of India’s independence.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath later said that the meeting was discussed how an effective programme can be framed to double the farmers income in the next five years.
