Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini said that 1 lakh families categorized under Antyodaya and deprived of land will soon be allotted 100-square yard plots, along with the ownership documents. Following this milestone, the next phase will commence with the selection of an additional 1 lakh beneficiaries. Furthermore, starting from August 15, government hospitals in 10 districts upgraded with modern facilities and equipment on the lines of private hospitals will begin offering treatment for all types of diseases. This initiative aims to provide the people of the state with high-quality healthcare services at affordable rates.
The Chief Minister was speaking during the program held in the villages of Dagali, Deeg, Beed Kalwa, and Dhanani under the Ladwa Assembly constituency, today. Residents in each village gave him a warm welcome. During the visit, the Chief Minister listened to public grievances and directed officials on the spot to address them promptly.
He announced Rs 55.41 lakh for a clean drinking water pipeline in village Dagali, Rs 52.64 lakh for village Beed Kalwa, and Rs 27.15 lakh for village Dhanani.

Additionally, the Chief Minister announced Rs 21 lakh for development works in each of the four villages and assured that all demand letters submitted by the respective sarpanches would be forwarded to the concerned departments for necessary action.
Saini said that farmers in Kurukshetra district cultivate sunflowers on a large scale. Keeping this in view, the government has decided to establish a sunflower oil mill in Shahbad. Additionally, land has been identified in Rewari for setting up a mustard oil mill. These two mills will help ensure that farmers receive fair prices for their sunflower and mustard crops. He further added that Haryana is the first state in the country where all crops are being procured at Minimum Support Price (MSP). Moreover, under the Bhavantar Bharpai Yojana, farmers are compensated when they receive lower market prices for vegetables and other crops.
The Chief Minister said that families with an annual income of less than Rs 1.80 lakh are being provided LPG cylinders at a subsidized rate of Rs 500. Around 18 lakh families across the state are currently benefiting from this scheme. Similarly, under the Ayushman Bharat Yojana, free medical treatment up to Rs 5 lakh is being provided to eligible citizens. For senior citizens above 70 years of age, the treatment coverage has been extended up to Rs 10 lakh. The state government has released Rs 6 crore for this scheme. He further added that kidney patients are now receiving free dialysis services in government hospitals.
The Chief Minister said that the government has prepared a new policy to provide relief to villagers who have been residing in houses built on village panchayat land for over 20 years, from court and other legal cases. Under this policy, such families can now obtain the registry of that property, up to 500 square yards, in their name.
