Chandigarh, July 16 –

Union Minister of Home and Cooperation, Sh Amit Shah said that following the Central Government’s guidelines, the creamy layer limit for backward classes in Haryana has been increased from Rs 6 lakh to Rs 8 lakh annually. Similar to the Government of India, salary and income from agriculture will not be clubbed in this limit, benefiting lakhs of people.

Union Minister of Home and Cooperation, Sh Amit Shah was addressing the gathering at the state-level Backward Class Samman Sammelan in Mahendragarh today. Chief Minister Sh Nayab Singh Saini was also present on this occasion.

The Union Home and Cooperation Minister said that the Haryana government has taken another historic decision by increasing the reservation for backward classes in Panchayats, Municipal Corporations, and Municipalities. Previously, there was a provision of 8 percent reservation for the BC-A category in Panchayati Raj institutions. Now, an additional 5 percent reservation will be provided for the BC-B category. This decision will significantly benefit the people of Haryana by expanding access to reservation. Similarly, there is an existing provision of 8 percent reservation for the BC-A category in urban local bodies. Now, a 5 percent reservation will also be provided for the BC-B category.

He recalled that when Prime Minister Sh Narendra Modi first took office in 2014, he stated in his inaugural parliamentary speech that his government would be a government for Scheduled Castes, the poor, and the backward.

Congress party has always been against OBC community – Amit Shah

Taking a dig at the opposition, Union Home Minister Sh Amit Shah said that Haryana Leader of Opposition Sh Bhupinder Singh Hooda only starts chanting “BC-BC-BC” when elections are near. He accused the Congress party of always being against the OBC community. Shah highlighted that the Kaka Saheb Commission was formed in 1957 for OBC reservations, but Congress did not implement it for years. In 1980, Indira Gandhi shelved the Mandal Commission, and when it was introduced in 1990, then Prime Minister Sh Rajiv Gandhi opposed OBC reservations with a 2-hour and 43-minute speech. In contrast, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has granted constitutional rights to the backward classes by giving constitutional recognition to the Backward Class Commission. Additionally, the BJP-led government, under Prime Minister Sh Narendra Modi, has introduced 27 per cent reservation for OBCs in Kendriya Vidyalayas, Navodaya Vidyalayas, Sainik Schools, and NEET examinations for the first time.

Union Minister of Home and Cooperation, Sh. Shah further criticized the Congress party, claiming it has contributed nothing to the state except casteism and corruption. He said that the BJP has transformed the “ease of doing corruption” under Congress into the “ease of doing business.” He also mentioned that during previous regimes, there was rampant corruption in one government while saw widespread hooliganism in another government, with development often confined to specific districts or regions. In contrast, the BJP government has ensured comprehensive development across the entire state of Haryana.

Will not allow reservation for Muslims in Haryana – Home Minister

Union Minister of Home and Cooperation, Sh Amit Shah said that Congress gave reservation to Muslims in the backward class in Karnataka. If they come to Haryana, they will do the same here. He assured that reservation for Muslims will not be allowed in Haryana.

Our workers will demand 10 years account from Congress

He called upon the people, including BJP workers, to go from village to village and demand an account of how much money was spent on development works during the 10-year tenure of Congress. Referring to the 6225 panchayats in the state, Sh Amit Shah mentioned that Rs 19.54 crore has been spent on development works in Brahmin Majra village over the last 10 years. Similarly, Rs 17.74 crore has been spent in Kalinga, Rs 84.33 crore in Tigaon, Rs 516.62 crore in Kariyawas, Rs 23.95 crore in Asankalan, and Rs 21.30 crore in Kharia.

He said that BJP workers will visit all 6225 panchayats to present an account of the development works carried out by the BJP. Along with this, they will also demand an account of the development works done by Congress for the people of Haryana over the past 10 years. He challenged former Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, stating that Hooda should come forward with statistics. “What account will he ask from us? We will provide the account. The people of Haryana will demand an account from Congress.”

Union Minister of Home and Cooperation, Sh Amit Shah challenged Bhupender Singh Hooda, stating that while Hooda may attempt to scrutinize the BJP’s 10 years in power, BJP workers will instead demand an account of Hooda’s ten-year tenure. Shah asserted, “I have brought the account of every penny spent during the ten years of Congress rule. We know exactly how much corruption Congress engaged in regarding jobs, how much casteism and nepotism it spread, and why it failed to deliver justice to the backward classes. They cannot account for development.”

He further stated that during Congress rule, the Center provided Rs 41,000 crore for development projects in Haryana. In contrast, the current Narendra Modi government has allocated approximately Rs 2 lakh 59 thousand crore for the development of Haryana.

Son of a poor family from backward class has been made Chief Minister

Referring to the welfare work done for the backward class in Haryana over the last 10 years, Sh Amit Shah highlighted that the Bharatiya Janata Party government has made the son of a poor family from the backward class as the Chief Minister of Haryana. He expressed confidence that Haryana will progress under his leadership. Shah praised Haryana Chief Minister Sh Naib Singh, describing him as a very straightforward and simple person whose doors are open for the people 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Haryana’s fame across the country

While paying homage to the great freedom fighter Rao Tula Ram, Sh Amit Shah said that the entire country, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari and Kamakhya to Dwarka, remembers the holy land of Haryana for three things. First, Haryana has the highest representation in military services. Second, out of the 10 medals India wins in the country’s sports tally, 7 are brought home by the ‘Dhaakad’ athletes of Haryana. Third, it is the farmers of Haryana who make the country self-sufficient in food.

Lotus will bloom for the third time in Haryana with a full majority

Expressing confidence, he said that just as the people of the state supported the Narendra Modi government in the 2014 and 2019 Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha elections and again in 2024, people of the state will once again bless the lotus in the upcoming Haryana Assembly elections. He said that the Bharatiya Janata Party will form the government in Haryana for the third time with a full majority.
