Chandigarh, March 21 - Haryana Chief Minister Mr. Naib Singh Saini said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi, India is touching new heights of development, but when I see the situation of Punjab, my mind is filled with pain. There was a time when Punjab was the leader of the entire country, whether it was agriculture, sports, army or industry, Punjab was at the top. However, now the situation is completely opposite. Today, the farmers of Punjab are worried, the youth are disappointed and there are tears in the eyes of mothers about the future of their children.
Chief Minister Mr. Naib Singh Saini was addressing a program organized at the Kisan Palace in Samana, Punjab on Saturday. On this occasion, the Chief Minister welcomed Prof. Mohan Lal Sharma by wearing the patka of the Bharatiya Janata Party on joining the party and said that the party will give him full respect. On this occasion, he also extended his greetings on the occasion of Navratri.
The Chief Minister said in his address that the history of Samana is very ancient and glorious. Banda Singh Bahadur proved the iron fist of Sikh military power by defeating the Mughals in the Battle of Samana in the year 1709. This war not only avenged the killing of the Gurus but also laid the foundation of the first Sikh kingdom. I bow to this heroic land of Punjab which has sacrificed everything for the protection of the country and this is the holy land where the great Gurus showed the path of service, renunciation and sacrifice through their holy scriptures.
He said that the relationship between Punjab and Haryana is not just that of neighboring states but this relationship is of blood. This relationship is of shared heritage and common struggles. I have come among you not as a neighbor but as your younger brother and as your well-wisher. The Chief Minister said that today Punjab is backward in every field. He said that the 'AAP' party showed false vegetables to the public, in the last four and a half years they have not fulfilled a single promise. The situation is such that only corruption is prevalent in Punjab.
The Chief Minister said that the Bharatiya Janata Party is a party that can also make Punjab a developed state. Referring to Haryana, he said that Haryana is the first state in the country where today 24 crops are being purchased at MSP. In the last 11 and a half years, more than Rs 16 thousand crore has been transferred to the accounts of farmers as compensation for crop loss under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana and crop insurance. Along with this, about Rs 133 crore of farmers' loans have also been waived. Payment for the purchase of crops is being made within 48 hours.
He appealed to the people present that if Punjab is also to be made a developed state, then for this, a Bharatiya Janata Party government has to be formed in Punjab in the year 2027. As many welfare schemes as there are in Haryana, the work of implementing them here too will be done as soon as the BJP government is formed in Punjab.
On this occasion, the program organizer Prof. Mohan Lal Sharma honored the Chief Minister by presenting a shawl and a memento. On this occasion, former MP Maharani Preneet Kaur also welcomed the Chief Minister and appealed to the people present to make the lotus flower bloom in Punjab in the year 2027, so that Punjab can move forward on the path of development. During this, a large number of honorable people including District President Harmesh Goyal, Political Advisor to the Chief Minister Tarun Bhandari were present.
