Ahead of the Gohana rally of the Congress on November 10, Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Wednesday took a review meeting of the Mayors, Presidents of Municipal Corporations and Municipal Committees of Haryana and their Councilors to get maximum support.
Without naming the INlD which had organised a rally in Kurukshetra last week to celebrate the 100th birth anniversary of Chaudhary Devi lal, Hooda said that that one party is organising rally in the name of father, whereas other is holding the rally in the name of grandfather. “My grandfather was a social reformer and father was a member of the Constituent Assembly and a freedom fighter, my strength is people of Haryana and they will show their strength by coming in large number in Gohana Rally of November 10,” he added
He said in Kurukshetra rally, Punjab Chief Minister, Parkash Singh Badal asked different parties to forge alliance to remove Hooda and rule Haryana. “This will be clearly an alliance for power and not for the service of the people. My alliance is only with the people of Haryana for their service and development of the State,” he added. Hooda asked the representative of the local bodies to expose the opposition parties and how they are misleading the people. They should show the people the right course and save them from being misled, he said.
The Chief Minister said that his Government has paid attention to the development of all the areas of the State and welfare schemes have been implemented for different sections of the society. During the regime of previous Government, the old age pension was Rs 200, which has been increased to Rs 500 and Rs 700. In the field of education, Haryana is emerging as an education hub. There is progress in the fields of agriculture and industry. In sports, Haryana is a sports power today.
Rajya Sabha MP Ram Prakash said that Mayors, Presidents of MCs and Councilors are opinion makers and they should make efforts to ensure that on November 10 Gohana looks like a Congress town.
