Haryana’s Energy, Transport and Labour Minister Anil Vij strongly criticized Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge, and said that “Kharge Ji does not trust his own country, its people or the Prime Minister—he has more trust in foreigners.” He added that “Kharge Ji may not trust us, but at least he should trust his dear Pakistan and what their Prime Minister/Deputy Prime Minister said—that Trump did not hold any talks or mediation to stop the India-Pakistan war.”
Vij made these remarks today while responding to questions asked by the media personnel regarding Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge’s statement that, “Modi Ji and the BJP lie so much. When the India-Pakistan war was ongoing, Donald Trump said that he stopped it, that he asked them to halt… Trump said this 16 times. Modi didn’t respond. Why? Because he didn’t have the courage to speak against Trump.”
The Energy Minister responded that “When the Prime Minister of India has clearly said there were no talks or mediation of any kind, and when the Deputy Prime Minister of Pakistan has also confirmed there were no talks, then at least Kharge Ji should believe the Pakistani Deputy PM, after all, Pakistan is close to his heart.”
*”During the present government’s tenure, all kinds of direct benefits go straight into beneficiaries’ accounts” – Vij*
In response to a question regarding Rahul Gandhi’s recent comment that “the sole aim of the crop insurance scheme is to steal farmers’ money and funnel it into the pockets of three or four billionaires by looting government funds,”on this, Sh Vij hit back and said that “Rahul Gandhi Ji, this is not your late father Sh. Rajiv Gandhi Ji’s time, when one rupee sent from the top used to result in only 15 paise reaching the ground, and 85 paise was eaten up by your system. Today, every rupee reaches the beneficiary’s account—whether it’s from the Kisan Nidhi, a pension, or disability support. Today, all money goes directly into the accounts of beneficiaries, so how can it end up in anyone’s private coffers?”
*”Former Chief Minister Sh. Manohar Lal made considerable efforts to improve infrastructure in Gurugram” – Vij*
In response to a question about the recent heavy rainfall and waterlogging in Gurugram, which led to the death of nine to ten people, Sh. Vij said that “When Gurugram was first established, it was under opposition governments. Proper planning of drainage, sewers, and roads should be done before settling a city. But now, breaking and rebuilding an already settled city is extremely difficult. No government at that time paid attention to this. However, in the last 10 years, former Chief Minister Manohar Lal made significant efforts to improve Gurugram. But when the initial design and planning of the city were flawed, making major improvements becomes difficult. He added that he is deeply saddened by the deaths in Gurugram.
