Former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Thursday, slammed the BJP-ruling state government, stating that Haryana will not progress until the law and order situation improves.
Hooda, who was in Sonipat to inaugurate the new chambers for the Kharkhoda Bar Association, made the remarks as he addressed the bar members.
Speaking to the press after the event, Hooda lambasted the Bharatiya Janata Party, accusing it of failure on all fronts, from law and order to development. He alleged that the current government had not delivered on key issues, and instead, had burdened the state with increasing debt.
"This government has done nothing except raise the state's debt," Hooda said.
"During the Congress tenure, Haryana was ranked number one in terms of per capita income, per capita investment, and overall development. However, after being in power for ten years, the BJP has failed to establish any major institutions or projects in the state, with no tangible achievements to show."
Hooda also pointed to the delay or cancellation of several key projects under the current government. He claimed that significant initiatives like the Maruti plant in Kharkhoda and the fruit-flower market in Sonipat had been put on hold.
Furthermore, he accused the BJP of mishandling projects initiated under the Congress government, citing the example of the Rail Coach Factory, which had been approved for Haryana but was later relocated to another state by the current administration.
The former Chief Minister's comments highlight ongoing discontent with the BJP-led government in Haryana, particularly over the state's development trajectory and economic policies.
