*\u2018Operation Lotus\u2019 Charge Baseless; People Themselves Seeking Change: CM*<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chandigarh, February 2026 \u2013 Haryana Chief Minister Sh. Nayab Singh Saini said that when a political party begins to lose its acceptability among the public, it resorts to allegations to divert attention from real issues. Referring to the so-called allegations such as \u201cOperation Lotus\u201d being raised in view of the BJP\u2019s growing activity and public support in Punjab, he termed them completely baseless and a symbol of political frustration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chief Minister was addressing a programme organised in Chandigarh on Thursday. He said that if the public itself is making comparisons and searching for alternatives, the blame should not be placed on others. The people of Punjab now want peace and development, and only the BJP can deliver it. Just as Haryana is moving ahead on the path of development, Punjab too is ready for change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Open challenge on MSP procurement; purchase of 24 crops a national record*<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chief Minister threw an open challenge to the opposition on the issue of MSP procurement, saying that if a discussion is held with data, \u201cthe truth will come out clearly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said the opposition wants farmers to remain stuck in protests, whereas the government wants farmers to continue to grow and make the nation and state prosperous. Procurement of 24 crops on MSP is a national record \u2014 not a slogan but a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Trade with the US and European Union to benefit farmers and industry*<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chief Minister clarified that the trade deal with the United States will benefit Indian farmers. Farmers from an agrarian state like Haryana will gain access to the American market for basmati rice, dairy products, fruits, vegetables, and processed food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, trade with the European Union will create export opportunities in sectors such as textiles, automobiles, and heavy engineering, strengthening the state\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Opposition spreading lies on old-age pension*<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Responding to allegations about cutting old-age pensions, the Chief Minister said the opposition is spreading lies and confusion on a sensitive issue for cheap popularity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He clarified that out of the two lakh cases being cited, Over 1.03 lakh beneficiaries had passed away, around 37,000 had incorrect age records and about 39,000 cases were pending for verification, and the document verification is currently underway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added that in 1992 the Congress government had fixed the income limit at \u20b910,000, which was not revised till 2009. In 2023, the present government increased the income limit from \u20b92 lakh to \u20b93 lakh, raising beneficiaries to 17.98 lakh, and today more than 20 lakh elderly persons are receiving pensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said pension increased by \u20b9200 during the INLD rule and by \u20b9700 during 10 years of Congress, whereas the present government has made a historic increase of \u20b92,200 in 11 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Transparency in HPSC recruitment*<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rejecting opposition allegations regarding HPSC recruitments, the Chief Minister said recruitments are being conducted with complete transparency. The earlier system of \u201cparchi-kharchi\u201d has been ended, and merit alone is the basis of recruitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah have publicly praised Haryana\u2019s transparent recruitment system and cite it as an example for other states.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
