Haryana moved backwards under BJP rule: Deepender
The Hindu
‘It only leads in crime, unemployment’
Congress Rajya Sabha MP Deepender Hooda on Thursday said Haryana in the past seven years of BJP rule has moved backwards instead of moving ahead in all spheres. “The latest data of the NITI Aayog shows that Haryana has slipped in most areas but has taken up the top slots only in crime and unemployment rates. Government of India’s NITI Aayog report, which tracks the performance of the State governments on 17 parameters, has exposed the all false claims of the Haryana government,” he said at a virtual press conference. Mr. Hooda said the Sustainable Development Report (SDG) index released by NITI Aayog now puts Haryana in the top 3 States in ‘unemployment and crime’. Apart from this, the State has also lagged behind in education, industrial and economic growth, he said.
