Today, the light of education is reaching every home here. From Rakhi Garhi, which echoes the grandeur of our ancient civilization, to Agroha, which tells the tale of Maharaja Agrasen’s legacy of commerce and social harmony, this land is rich with heritage.
Chief Minister emphasized the deep bond between Prime Minister Sh Narendra Modi and the people of Haryana. Recalling the Prime Minister’s visit to Hisar on September 28, 2024, during the assembly elections, he said, “From this very land, the Prime Minister had sought a pledge from the people to elect a BJP government for the third consecutive term. Today, I feel proud to say that the people of Haryana have fulfilled that pledge. This victory is a testament to the trust, intent, policies, and leadership of the Central Government, he added.
He said that within the first 100 days of the BJP’s third term, 19 promises from the party’s Sankalp Patra have been fulfilled, work has commenced on 90 others, and significant progress is being made on the rest.

Reflecting on the transformation in air travel accessibility, he said that for many years post-independence, air travel remained a distant dream for the common citizen due to lack of connectivity. Prime Minister Sh Narendra Modi has turned this dream into reality through the UDAN scheme. He said that the Prime Minister has also laid the foundation stone of the second terminal building of the airport and continuous flights to Ayodhya, Jammu, Ahmedabad, Jaipur and Chandigarh have also started from here.

BJP Government honours Baba Saheb and Ch Charan Singh with Bharat Ratna
The Prime Minister paid tribute to Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar and farmer-leader Chaudhary Charan Singh. He said that while previous Congress governments overlooked such towering personalities, the BJP government has honoured them with the Bharat Ratna, giving them the recognition they truly deserve.
He accused the Congress of using the Constitution merely as a vote-bank tool, claiming that the party systematically ignored the rights granted to SC, ST, and OBC communities, thus keeping the poor and marginalized away from their entitlements. He stressed that the true spirit of the Constitution calls for a Uniform Civil Code, which Congress never attempted to implement. In contrast, the BJP government in Uttarakhand has taken concrete steps toward implementing the Uniform Civil Code.
Empowering the deprived with a life of dignity
The Prime Minister pointed out that for nearly 70 years after independence, only 16% of the population had access to tap water, most of whom belonged to SC, ST, and OBC communities. In the initial 6–7 years, the BJP government has provided tap water connections to over 12 crore rural households, raising coverage in villages to 80%. He reaffirmed the government’s resolve to ensure tap water reaches every home.
He also highlighted that a lack of basic sanitation disproportionately impacted these communities. By constructing over 11 crore toilets, the government has significantly improved their quality of life and dignity. Moreover, he said that after recent amendments to the Waqf Act, Waqf Boards can no longer claim ownership of tribal lands in any part of the country.
On this occasion, Union Minister of State for Civil Aviation Murlidhar Mohol, Haryana Civil Aviation Minister Vipul Goyal, Social Justice and Empowerment Minister Krishan Kumar Bedi, Public Works Minister Ranbir Gangwa, MP Dharambir Singh, Rajya Sabha MPs Kiran Choudhary and Subhash Barala, BJP State President Mohanlal Badauli along with other ministers and MLAs of the state were present.
