Haryana Chief Minister, Manohar Lal Khattar stated that the state government is emphasising on promoting quality education, healthcare and social security in Haryana as well as providing a boost to the spirit of self-reliance amongst the people of the state with the vision to ensure good governance. The Chief Minister said this while interacting to media at Haryana Bhawan, New Delhi on Monday.
He said, “Our government is continuously laying emphasis on development and in this direction, we are moving forward with the spirit of Antyodaya.” He said that the state is scaling new heights through inclusive development. He said that 80 percent of the works announced during the budget last year have been completed and the new budget provisions will be put into action from 1 April, 2023. He further added, “We faced the challenge of COVID-19 and we strenuously worked hard to convert these challenges into opportunity by providing facilities through the use of technology.” The Chief Minister said that we have effectively implemented the Parivar Pehchan Patra scheme and now the government is directly reaching out to the families which need assistance and other facilities.
The Chief Minister said that 12 lakh new ration cards have been made while ration cards of 9 lakh ghost beneficiaries have been removed. “Haryana government is the first government which is procuring 14 crops on MSP and similarly Bhavantar Bharpayee Yojana has been implemented to ensure purchase of farmers’ produce,” he said. On the issue of water, the Chief Minister said that we are closely monitoring the depleting ground water issue and adequately taking measures to resolve it. He added that subsidy is being given under micro-irrigation as the ground water in Haryana has gone down by 10 meters from 2011 to 2022. He further stated that they have effectively implemented the ‘Mera Pani-Meri Virasat’ scheme which is drawing stellar results.
