The Chief Minister, who was addressing a press conference at Ramkundi Dharamshala in Ladwa today, also shared details about his recent meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the comprehensive development of Haryana.
He said that new opportunities are being created to ensure that development reaches every village and city. Under the Amrit Station Scheme, several railway stations are undergoing significant upgrades, he said.
Taking a dig at the Congress, the Chief Minister said that people are well aware of the misgovernance in the past, whereas in the past ten years under Prime Minister Modi’s leadership, the country has seen rapid and meaningful progress.
