Chief Minister takes part in state-level yoga marathon in Kurukshetra

Chandigarh, June 15 – Haryana Chief Minister Sh. Nayab Singh Saini said this time, the International Gita Jayanti Mahotsav will be celebrated in collaboration with England. Every year, International Gita Jayanti programmes are organized in collaboration with different countries.

The Chief Minister was talking to journalists on Sunday after the successful organization of state-level yoga marathon organized at Brahma Sarovar under the aegis of Haryana Sports Department, AYUSH Department and District Administration.

Speaking on political developments in neighbouring Punjab, he said the people of Punjab, once disillusioned by the Congress, are now equally disappointed with the Aam Aadmi Party. Both parties have only made empty promises and worked for their own interests. The public has now made up its mind to bring change and make the lotus bloom in Punjab too.

In response to a question, the Chief Minister said that the people of the state are well aware of the law and order of the Congress rule.

He said it is not in the hands of anyone to tell when an accident may happen. In this accident, a daughter of our district has also lost her life, which is very sad news. At such a time, the government is standing with the affected families to provide all kinds of support, he said.
