Our promise is that when the Congress government is formed, there will be no gangster or criminal in the state,” he added.

Similarly, more than 2 lakh confirmed jobs in Haryana will be given without paper leak, as per merit and in a time-bound manner. All families will get the benefit of gas cylinder for ₹500 and 300 units of free electricity. ₹6000 pension will be given to the elderly,” he stated.
