Chandigarh, March 9 - Haryana Chief Minister Sh Manohar Lal, while announcing developmental projects worth approximately Rs 700 crore for Nuh district, said that comprehensive development would be undertaken in all three assembly constituencies of the region. He reassured that there would be no discrimination with this area, unlike in previous governments.

        The Chief Minister was addressing the state level function organized in honour of Shaheed Raja Hasan Khan Mewati in Nuh district today.

        The Chief Minister lamented that previous governments had exploited the people of Mewat solely as a vote bank, neglecting their welfare and failing to foster prosperity in the region. Since assuming power in 2014, the current government has adhered to the fundamental principle of "Haryana Ek-Haryanvi Ek" ensuring equitable development across the entire state. The Chief Minister said that regardless of any political advantage in Mewat, he has pursued the same level of development initiatives in the region as he has in his own assembly constituency of Karnal. He highlighted that till date any Chief Minister would have hardly made only 5-6 visits to Mewat during his tenure. However, he has already visited the region 11 times in just 9 years, demonstrating his commitment to addressing the needs of the area.

        Speaking of the development initiatives in Mewat, he said that over the past 9 years, developmental works worth approximately Rs 5000 crore have already been carried out in the region. He asserted that there is no need for the residents to make specific requests as he is aware of their needs and is committed to addressing them.

        On this occasion, the Chief Minister announced several significant initiatives, including the establishment of a research chair in the name of Shaheed Raja Hasan Khan Mewati at the Shaheed Hasan Khan Mewati Medical College, Nuh. In addition, he also announced to form a 5-member committee named after Shaheed Hasan Khan Mewati, chaired by former MLA and State Waqf Board Chairman Ch Zakir Hussain, to oversee development projects. Other announcements include establishment of 18 tube wells worth Rs 2 crore to deal with the problem of ‘Sem’, Rs 10 crore for setting up veterinary polyclinic, Rs 18 crore for micro projects under irrigation and solar energy works, Rs 43 crore for construction and widening of bridge along Gurgaon Canal Rajasthan Bikaner and other rehabilitation works, Rs 64 crore for beautification and restoration of 33 ponds, establishment of 20 e-libraries, establishment of additional section of Nuh Secretariat, PWD Guest House, Ferozepur Jhirka, Taoru Sub Division Office at a cost of Rs 150 crore, Rs 10 crore for providing all the facilities in 7 Rajiv Gandhi sports stadias already operational and improvement and roads and other infrastructure worth crores of rupees.

        He said that today a sum of Rs 1 crore has been allocated to Nagina Panchayat without any formal request. Additionally, the 100-bedded Al-Afia District Hospital in Mandikheda will be upgraded to 200 bed facility. Furthermore, the department will conduct surveys for establishing health centers in villages and towns, with the aim to provide this service within the next 6 months based on the community's needs.

        Sh Manohar Lal said that Gurukuls and Madrasas would receive financial assistance upon registration with the Haryana School Education Board. Those Gurukuls/Madrasas opting for modern education through the Haryana School Education Board will receive Rs 2 lakh per year for 50-80 children, Rs 3 lakh for 81-100 children, Rs 5 lakh for 101-200 children, and Rs 7 lakh per year for above 200 enrollments. Additionally, the Chief Minister virtually offered job offers to 1504 local youth for teaching positions under the Haryana Kaushal Rozgaar Nigam (HKRN). He said that colleges of Punhana and Firozpur Jhirkha will start operation very soon.
