Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said the state government is working with firm determination to realise Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of Viksit Bharat-2047. The government’s objective is to make Haryana the first fully developed state in the country in line with this vision. The government is not only making promises but also delivering on them. Out of the 217 commitments made in the Assembly election manifesto, 76 have already been fulfilled within just two years, while work on the remaining 141 commitments is progressing rapidly.
He said that the development of any state or region is measured by the improvements and conveniences brought into the everyday lives of ordinary people. Development promises translate into reality only when change becomes visible from homes and neighbourhoods to village community centres. For the government, public service is not merely an administrative formality but a duty towards the people.
The Chief Minister was addressing a programme organised at the premises of Neeldhari Gurdwara Pipli Sahib in Kurukshetra district on Sunday. Earlier, he presented 6 development projects worth Rs. 44.83 crore to the Pipli, Ladwa and Thanesar areas. He inaugurated 4 projects worth Rs. 13.36 crore and laid the foundation stone of 2 projects worth Rs. 31.47 crore. The Chief Minister also extended greetings on the occasion of Chhath Puja. MP, Sh. Naveen Jindal, and former Minister of State, Sh. Subhash Sudha, were also present.
Nayab Singh Saini said that Dharmakshetra-Kurukshetra is the centre of our civilisation, faith and philosophy of life. It was from this sacred land that Bhagwan Shri Krishna gave the message of karma, duty and public welfare to the entire world. The projects being undertaken today are an effort to translate that very spirit of commitment into reality.
The Chief Minister said that the foundation stone has been laid for a sewerage system costing Rs. 22.47 crore and a 6.50 MLD pumping station for the colonies in Pipli, Bir Pipli and along the Pipli-Ladwa Road in the Ladwa Assembly constituency. This will provide a permanent solution to the long-standing problem of waterlogging and drainage.
He said that two 33 KV substations, constructed at a cost of Rs. 12.25 crore in Sector-28 and Jogna Khera, have become operational. These will further strengthen the power supply system. Sub-Health Centres have also been opened in Mirzapur and Dayalpur, ensuring that people no longer have to travel long distances for treatment and can access healthcare facilities in their own villages.
He further said that the KDB Road will be renovated and beautified at a cost of Rs. 9 crore. Devotees visiting the holy city will now be welcomed by the magnificent Kurukshetra Dwar and Umri Dwar.
The Chief Minister said that development and heritage are being taken forward together in Kurukshetra district. A 50-bed Civil Hospital has been constructed in Ladwa. The elevated railway track in Kurukshetra, built at a cost of approximately Rs. 400 crore, has already been dedicated to the public. It is the second such track in the country after Rohtak. A nursing college is also being constructed at Kheri Ramnagar.
He said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had laid the foundation stone of a Sikh Museum to be constructed in Kurukshetra at a cost of Rs. 164 crore and unveiled a replica of Panchjanya.
He said that the projects inaugurated and launched today are concrete steps towards building a developed Haryana. The role of public representatives and citizens is equally important. They should continue to bring the needs of their areas and the status of ongoing development works to the attention of the administration so that every problem can be resolved in a timely manner.
Assuring the people of Pipli, Ladwa, Thanesar and the entire Kurukshetra district, the Chief Minister said that development works would continue uninterrupted. Together, we will build a Kurukshetra that offers modern facilities while further strengthening its rich cultural identity.

*Message of Gita and Struggle of Bhagwan Birsa Munda are a Source of Inspiration for All: CM Nayab Singh Saini*
*Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini lays the foundation stone of Shri Krishna Kripa Dham in Panchkula*
*Pays tribute at the state-level function on the birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda*
*Chief Minister announces a grant of Rs. 31 lakh from his discretionary fund for the construction of Shri Krishna Kripa Dham*
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said that Bhagwan Shri Krishna showed humanity the path of karma, duty and public welfare through the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, while Bhagwan Birsa Munda, through his life and struggle, inspired people to uphold self-respect, unity and the resolve to protect their land and culture. The messages of both great personalities teach us that a meaningful life is one that remains committed to one’s duties and dedicated to the welfare of society.
The Chief Minister was speaking on Sunday while laying the foundation stone of the building of Shri Krishna Kripa Dham in Panchkula and addressing the state-level ceremony organised on the occasion of Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas and the birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda. He also announced a financial assistance of Rs. 31 lakh for the construction of Shri Krishna Kripa Dham. The Chief Minister also joined the national programme of Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas virtually and listened to the address of Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Modi.
Nayab Singh Saini said that with the establishment of Shri Krishna Kripa Dham on the sacred land of Panchkula, the foundation is being laid not merely for a building but for a spiritual centre that will impart values of service, dedication and the teachings of the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita to future generations. He expressed confidence that this structure, built with bricks and stones, would evolve into a sacred pilgrimage centre through the strength of faith and values.
*Knowledge of the Gita helps overcome worries*
The Chief Minister said that under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Haryana Government is making efforts to take the teachings of the Gita from Kurukshetra to every household across the world, with the significant contribution of Gita Manishi Swami Gyananand Ji Maharaj. He said that in today’s times, when people often remain worried about the future, the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita inspires them to exercise patience, wisdom and perform their duties. The Chief Minister expressed hope that the spiritual message emanating from this Dham would spread from Panchkula across Haryana and the entire country.
*Prime Minister gave Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas national recognition*
The Chief Minister said that it is a matter of pride that Prime Minister Narendra Modi accorded national recognition to the birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda as Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas. Since 2021, this day has been observed every year on November 15 to respectfully remember the sacrifices of tribal heroes and the contribution of tribal communities before the entire nation. He expressed his gratitude to the Prime Minister for this initiative.
*Struggle of Birsa Munda finds a place in history*
The Chief Minister said that the life of Dharti Aaba Bhagwan Birsa Munda symbolises courage, struggle, self-respect and the resolve to protect one’s land and culture. At the young age of just 25, Bhagwan Birsa Munda shook the foundations of British rule. His struggle against British rule and the exploitative system is etched in history. His life teaches us that courage does not lie merely in taking up arms, but also in fearlessly standing up for the rights, dignity and future of one’s people.
As a social reformer, he raised his voice against intoxication, superstition and social evils. He later led a massive uprising for the protection of water, forests and land, giving the slogan, ‘Our Land, Our Rule’.
The Chief Minister said that a closer look at the life of Bhagwan Birsa Munda reveals that he practised the teachings of the Gita in his own life and accorded priority to karma and duty, in keeping with its message. This is why he will always be remembered. At a young age, he raised his voice against injustice and exploitation and awakened a spirit of awareness, unity and cultural pride among tribal communities. Today, Bhagwan Birsa Munda lives on in every farmer, every tribal person and every youth who stands up against injustice.
