“After the first phase of allotments, another 1 lakh beneficiaries will be selected for the next round,” the CM said.

He said modernised government hospitals in 10 districts would begin offering affordable, high-quality treatment for all diseases starting August 15, modelled on the lines of private healthcare facilities.

During his visit, the CM listened to public grievances and directed officials to address them on priority. He also announced a series of development grants, including Rs 55.41 lakh for a drinking water pipeline in Dangali, Rs 52.64 lakh for Bir Kalwa, Rs 27.15 lakh for Dhanani, Rs 23 lakh for Gudhi, Rs 70.44 lakh for Bakali and Rs 22 lakh for Jogi Majra.

In addition, he laid the foundation stone of a Rs 6.38-crore Primary Health Centre in Deeg and inaugurated a sports stadium at Dhanora Jattan. He also announced Rs 21 lakh for developmental works in each village he visited.

“All demand letters submitted by the village sarpanches will be forwarded to the departments concerned for necessary action,” he assured.

Encouraging the youth, the Chief Minister announced that police recruitment will soon be conducted in the state and urged young aspirants to begin their preparations.

“The government is committed to providing jobs to the youth purely on merit,” he said.

He also took a swipe at the Congress, accusing it of reducing employment to vote bargaining.

“Congress leaders once promised one job in exchange for 50 votes. That mindset led to their downfall. Today, they have no revival in sight,” he said.

The CM highlighted the success of the CET Group-C examination conducted by the Haryana Staff Selection Commission, which recorded over 90% attendance among 13.50 lakh applicants.

“This high turnout shows that young people trust the fairness and transparency of the current recruitment system,” he said.

Speaking at an Education Department event, CM Saini emphasised the need for value-based and moral education, along with technical training, to make India a developed nation.

He also launched the Smart TV Education Project from Ladwa, aimed at enhancing digital learning opportunities across Haryana schools.

Earlier in the day, the CM paid obeisance at the Arunai Shiva Temple in Pehowa. Speaking to mediapersons, he lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership for driving inclusive and cultural growth across all sectors.
