• Youth forced to leave the country due to severe unemployment; BJP’s policies have distanced young children from their old parents, home, family and country
Ambala: Former Chief Minister and Leader of Opposition Bhupinder Singh Hooda has said that the people of Haryana would vote for MSP guarantees, not for lathi-bullet to the farmer, for 32 lakh government jobs, not for record breaking unemployment, for annual apprenticeship guarantee of Rs 1,00,000, and not for sending youth to work as labour in war zone Israel. He said the people of Haryana are going to vote not for fear and crime, but for guarantee of security.
Hooda, who had come from Ambala today to campaign for Congress candidate Varun Mullana, addressed many programs and appealed to the people to vote for the Congress. State Congress president Chaudhary Udaibhan and senior leader Nirmal Singh were also present along with Hooda. Addressing the election meeting, Hooda said this time the choices are is very clear before the public. “On one hand, Congress is asking for votes in the name of development and welfare schemes, while on the other hand, BJP is asking for votes without showing any work, or telling any future plan. It is obvious that this time the public vote will go to Congress, and the sting of these votes would be felt by the BJP,” he said.
Hooda said there is anger in the entire state, including North Haryana that the BJP government has forced our youth to leave the country by spreading massive unemployment. “The youth is convinced that they have no future in the country under the BJP government. That’s why every second youth wants to go abroad through the donkey route, or any other means. BJP’s policies have separated young children from their old parents. Congress wants to make Haryana a state from where no youth is forced to migrate from the country,” he stated.
In his address, Congress president in the state Chaudhary Udaibhan said BJP wants to make India an undemocratic country like China and Russia by strangulating the Constitution. “Now BJP does not care at all about bringing back black money, bullet train, smart city, rising prices of diesel-petrol, gas cylinder rates and double income of farmers, nor does BJP want any party to talk about the grassroots issues of the people. That is why those in power spread lies about the 5 justices and 25 guarantees of the Congress, but now the manifesto of Congress has reached the hands and hearts of the people,” he said.
“When Congress government is formed, 30 lakh permanent job at the central level and 2 lakh jobs will be given in Haryana. Every recruitment will be done in a time bound manner, on the basis of merit, by eliminating paper leaks and recruitment mafia. The elderly woman of the house will be given one lakh rupees annually or Rs 8.5 thousand per month. The income of Asha workers and mid-day meal workers will double. Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar Bhawan will be built in every district. Sugar, mustard oil and other essential items will be added to the ration for the poor,” he promised.
While addressing the people, Congress Ambala candidate Varun Mullana said lakhs of martyrs have sacrificed their lives to bring democracy in India. “There can be no place for dictatorship in this country. The time has come to teach a lesson to the BJP which crushed the voices of every section of the society including farmers, labourers, employees, Panch-Sarpanch and businessmen,” he said.
Varun Mullana promised the public that just as he raised the voice of Mulana in the Assembly as an MLA, in the same way he will raise the voice of Ambala in the Lok Sabha by becoming an MP.
