DW BUREAU / Chandigarh Since 2014, the Double engine government has certainly doubled Haryana's growth pace. In all these eight years, the State has not only set a record in terms of implementing several first-of-its-kind development reforms but has also placed Haryana as one of the prominent state of the country in terms of infrastructural development, said an official spokesperson. The credit for this success certainly goes to the visionary thinking of the Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal. The Chief Minister not only increased the fund allocation for the development of infrastructure but set up various new developmental projects so as to ensure the holistic development of Haryana, spokesperson added. "We don't just promise, we deliver. Our government is giving special focus to the overall development of the state by bringing in radical changes. In today's era, Haryana has become prominent state of the country in terms of infrastructural development," believes Sh. Manohar Lal. The Chief Minister, who is also the Finance Minister of Haryana, while bringing in a policy change had created a Medium Term Expenditure Reserve Fund of Rs 8,700 crore so as to ensure the smooth execution of long-term projects. The budget allocation is done on an annual basis and many projects are of long duration, which takes more than a year to complete. Our government has accepted the fact that many projects, especially those related to infrastructure, require continuous support of budget. Therefore, a Reserve Fund has been created for such projects by making provision for medium-term expenditure structure to avoid delay in the completion of projects due to budget allocation on annual basis, says Sh. Manohar Lal. (editor@dailyworld.in)
