MGNREGA became synonymous with corruption under Congress rule, says CM
Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh-
Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini said that the Congress party and the INDI alliance deliberately misleading MGNREGA workers through a sustained campaign of falsehoods. Their repeated lies have completely destroyed their credibility and led people to openly mock and dismiss their claims.
Addressing a press conference here today, the Chief Minister said Congress has mastered the art of spreading misinformation whenever it runs out of logic or constructive ideas. He said that every time welfare reforms are introduced for the poor, Congress and the INDI alliance begin questioning the initiatives instead of offering solutions.
The Chief Minister said that if Congress had any genuine suggestions for PM Narendra Modi, they should have raised them in the Lok Sabha. Instead, he said, they avoid debate, shut down discussions, and walk away without answers. A similar pattern is seen in state assemblies, where Congress members arrive unprepared, submit incomplete representations, and leave, only to later spread rumours among the public, said Saini. He said that instead of spreading misinformation about the “Developed India” vision and welfare schemes, Congress and the INDI alliance should come clean about their own record.
Mocking Punjab Government of hastily passing pass the resolution on the Viksit Bharat-Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) (VB-G RAM G) Act, 2025 in their Vidhan Sabha on December 30, the Chief Minister said Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann should have clearly read the Act before passing any resolution. He added that instead of political theatrics between Congress and AAP, who share a Bua-Fuffad relationship, Bhagwant Mann should ensure Punjab pays Rs. 400 wages like Haryana, instead of the current Rs. 339.
