As someone who travels frequently on the Safidon-Jind route, the four-laning news is a huge relief! The current state of that road is terrible. Hope the quality of construction is good and it lasts.

A library named after Dr. Ambedkar costing ₹56 crore? That's a significant investment in education and a great tribute. Hope it's well-stocked and accessible to all students, not just university ones.

Good to see projects across sectors - roads, water, health, housing. But I have a respectful criticism: these 'Vikas Rallies' often happen before elections. Let's hope this is genuine development and not just an announcement for votes. The real test is on-ground completion.

Solar-powered irrigation is the future! This will reduce electricity costs for farmers massively. More districts in Haryana need this. Kudos for thinking long-term. 👏

The community health centre in Kandela is much needed. Rural healthcare infrastructure has been neglected for too long. Hope it's equipped with good doctors and medicines, not just a building.
