On BJP’s victory for the third consecutive time in the Haryana polls, Vij stated that the party faced pro-incumbency for its developmental works in the state.
“Before today, the governments kept changing by facing anti-incumbency. BJP has registred a hattrick victory. This is the first time Our opponents, who used to sleep every night as self-proclaimed Chief Ministers, used to jump several feet saying that there was anti-incumbency. Where was the anti-incumbency?… We had pro-incumbency. The people have voted for the positive work done in the state. People felt that ours is a working government,” Vij said.

“We have started working on the promises made to the people of the state. The purchase of paddy and millet from farmers was discussed in the cabinet meeting today. DAP and urea fertilizer were also discussed. We have said that we will provide jobs to 2 lakh youths, just yesterday more than 24,000 youths got jobs. This will continue in the future as well,” Gangwa said.

The resolve of Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas and Sabka Vishwas is paramount. We will leave no stone unturned in making Haryana the best, prosperous and self-reliant state. Under the leadership and guidance of Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji, our full majority government will be dedicated to service, good governance, equality, prosperity and welfare of the poor,” Haryana CM wrote on X.
