BJP govt ended ‘kharchi-parchi’ system prevailing in Haryana earlier: Shah

Chandigarh:  Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said the BJP government in Haryana has ended the “kharchi-parchi” system that prevailed in the state earlier, wherein people could not get jobs without corruption or favouritism.

The senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader also said the people of Haryana have given their mandate to the saffron party for a third consecutive term, and over the last 10 years, no stone has been left unturned for the state’s development.

Shah said this while addressing a gathering in Kurukshetra after inaugurating a week-long exhibition on the three new criminal laws enacted by the BJP-led Centre.

“For the third time in a row, the people of Haryana have given a mandate to the BJP, and the party government has left no stone unturned for the state’s development.

Earlier, when the government of a party was formed in Haryana, development took place in a particular district, and when another party came to power, another district witnessed development.

The rest of the state had to keep waiting for development,” he said, adding that the BJP has put an end to this regional bias that prevailed earlier.

“For the first time, Haryana is witnessing equitable development under the BJP government,” he said.

Shah dedicated several development projects to the people of Haryana. From Kurukshetra, he digitally inaugurated and laid the foundation stones of 19 projects worth Rs 825 crore.

These included the inauguration of five nursing colleges at a cost of Rs 262.51 crore, 84 residential quarters at the Jind Police Lines, a PWD guesthouse and block in Narnaul, along with the foundation stones for 11 projects totalling Rs 562.49 crore.

Shah also laid the foundation stones for several key infrastructure projects, including the strengthening of the Rohtak-Kharakoda-Delhi border road at a cost of Rs 25.04 crore, a dairy complex on Kanhali Road in Rohtak costing Rs 13.88 crore, a district jail building in Charkhi Dadri at an estimated cost of Rs 97.73 crore and another district jail building in Panchkula at a cost of Rs 86.17 crore.
