Addressing the gathering at the public meeting, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini said, our government is working diligently to resolve people's problems. Our government is making new decisions to simplify their lives. In the past 10 years, our double-engine government has not only transformed India but also worked on transforming Haryana, said Sh. Nayab Singh Saini.

Nayab Singh Saini while criticizing the opposition said that those who are now demanding the account of works done by our government, should note that their government worked on a commission mode, while our double-engine government operates in

mission mode.

He said that during the Congress era, politics was characterized by casteism, regionalism, and nepotism. Jobs were obtained through parchi-kharchi. Corruption was prevalent in transfers during their time, whereas now transfers are done online, said Sh. Nayab Singh Saini.

The Chief Minister sarcastically remarked that those demanding an account from us were the ones who had discarded the Swaminathan Report. He urged the opposition to account for their work over the past 10 years.

He stated that Jinke Khud Ke Khate Kharab Hain, who crossed all limits of corruption, and whose time saw people wandering from pillar to post with their problems, are now demanding an account from us. These are the same people who sold farmers' lands to builders at throwaway prices during their tenure, said Sh. Nayab Singh Saini .

He said that the success of the present state government's tenure is evident from the experiences of various beneficiaries including youth, who have secured government jobs without 'Parchi Kharchi', the poor who now receive free medical treatment, farmers who benefit from direct crop insurance and compensation payments, and the elderly who no longer have to endure lengthy processes to receive their pensions.

Nayab Singh Saini stated that during the Congress government, there were 6 medical colleges, which have now increased to 15. Similarly, MBBS seats have increased from 700 to 2185. The number of colleges has decreased from 105 to 182, while the number of girls' colleges has increased from 31 to 63.

The Chief Minister while providing information on the development works carried out by the present state government in the Pataudi Assembly constituency over the past 10 years, said that the government has spent Rs. 121 crore on the construction of roads, bridges, ROBs (Railway Over Bridges), RUBs (Railway Under Bridges), and the development of markets. Additionally, Rs. 14.36 crore have been spent on the improvement of roads in IMT Manesar Sector-8.

For potable water in both urban and rural areas of the Pataudi Assembly constituency, 112 tubewells, 13 boosting stations, and 3 sewage treatment plants have been established. Rs. 205 crore have been spent on canal-based water supply in Farrukhnagar, Pataudi, and Helimandi. Over the last 10 years, the state government has consistently carried out development works.

The Chief Minister said that the present state government is continuously working non-stop to provide facilities to the people of Haryana. Families with an annual income of less than Rs. 1 lakh have been provided with Happy Cards, allowing 23 lakh families and 84 lakh members to free travel upto 1000 kilometres annually on Haryana Roadways buses.
