Welcoming the Prime Minister, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said the Prime Minister is not only a symbol of the hopes, aspirations, and trust of 1.4 billion Indians but also the architect of a Viksit Bharat. The Chief Minister expressed his gratitude to the Prime Minister for dedicating nine major development projects worth Rs 14,721 crore to Haryana.
Saini said under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the country has witnessed unprecedented transformation over the past 12 years.

Saini said the Prime Minister has dedicated nine major development projects worth more than Rs 14,721 crore to Haryana, giving a new direction to the state’s growth. He said the day was historic not only for Haryana but for the entire country, as India, under the visionary leadership of the Prime Minister, is setting new benchmarks in every field. There was a time when India sought technology from the world, but today the world wants to adopt India’s technology. There was a time when India looked for opportunities abroad, but today the world is looking for opportunities in India. The same world that once questioned India’s capabilities now recognizes it as a confident nation leading a new era.
Historic Launch of Hydrogen Train
Chief Minister said that the launch of the country’s first hydrogen train from the soil of Haryana is a matter of great pride for the state. He said this is a strong example of the Prime Minister’s vision of green energy and an Atmanirbhar Bharat, and marks a historic step towards clean, modern, and environment-friendly transportation.
Central Support for State’s Growth
The Chief Minister said that under the Prime Minister’s leadership, Haryana has received assistance of more than Rs 7 lakh crore through various Central Government schemes over the past 12 years, thanks to the double-engine government. This support has accelerated the expansion of national highways, railways, metro projects, healthcare institutions, and other infrastructure across the state. He further stated that during the Prime Minister’s 4,435 days of dedicated public service, this was his 18th visit to Haryana. On previous occasions as well, the Prime Minister had dedicated development projects worth more than Rs 71,000 crore to the state. The projects launched today will further accelerate Haryana’s development.
Haryana’s Developmental Strides
The Chief Minister said that under the Prime Minister’s guidance, Haryana has achieved remarkable progress in education, healthcare, agriculture, industry, and infrastructure. The state has fulfilled its target of establishing one college every 20 kilometres, while PM SHRI Schools or Sanskriti Model Schools are being developed every 10 kilometres. Haryana currently has 17 medical colleges, of which 11 have been established during the past 12 years, while three more are under construction.
He said that Haryana is the first state in the country to procure all 24 crops at the Minimum Support Price (MSP) to safeguard farmers’ interests.
