Khattar urges PRI representatives to live upto expectations of people

Chandigarh: Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar while giving a basic mantra for rural development to Sarpanchs, Panchayat Samiti and Zilla Parishad members of Palwal and Faridabad districts, said that they should do good work to live upto the expectations of all those who have entrusted their trust on them by electing them.

During the programme, he also made the representatives pledge to establish a ‘corruption-free, transparent and Antyodaya-based system’.

“The tradition of Panchayats dates back to the time of Rigveda, thus every elected representative of the Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) should discharge their responsibility with complete honesty,” said Khattar while interacting with Sarpanch, Panchayat Samiti and Zilla Parishad members during the ‘Mantrana’ programme held at Palwal on Thursday.

Union Minister of State for Power and Heavy Industries Krishan Pal and Haryana Transport and Higher Education Minister Mool Chand Sharma also present in the programme.
