Nadda’s Remarks
Nadda emphasized the significance of the manifesto for the BJP, contrasting it with the Congress party’s approach. “For Congress, this document is just a formality and a means to deceive the people. We view the Sankalp Patra as crucial for our commitment to Haryana,” said Nadda. He highlighted the state’s progress under BJP leadership, noting an increase in per capita income from ₹1.37 lakh in 2014 to ₹3 lakh, and a rise in exports from ₹68,000 crore to ₹2.5 lakh crore.
