Haryana ahead of Modi’s Gujarat, says chief minister Hooda

Putting Haryana ahead of Gujarat in terms of development, chief minister Bhoopinder Singh Hooda on Monday said his government has performed far better than that in the Western state on a host of progress parameters. ‘I have compared about 50 parameters in which Haryana is far ahead of Gujarat.

Be it per capita income, per capita investment, per capita plan budget, old age pension, widow pension, scholarships to children of Scheduled Castes etc, we have performed better,’ Hooda said after a cabinet meeting. Hooda said that during the 11th Five Year Plan, Haryana had a planned budget of Rs 35,000 crore for resource mobilisation but it achieved more than 192 per cent of the target against Gujarat, which could not even achieve its target and realised only 96.5 per cent.
