Congress slams Haryana government for shifting airport project from Meham

Tribune News Service

Hisar, September 17

Congress’ Rajya Sabha MP Deepender Hooda has alleged that a number of mega projects which were proposed and conceptualised by the previous government were shifted out of the state after the change of guard in the state and at Centre.

Alleging that weak leadership of the state government was to be blamed for shifting of proposed projects, the Congress MP said a proposal to set up international airport in Meham was one of such projects.

He said ever since the BJP came to power, departments were being privatised.

Expressing displeasure over the slow pace of work on the Meham-Hansi-Rohtak railway line, he said the project was started in 2013, but was still hanging fire. “Hisar will be the biggest beneficiary of this rail line as it will be directly connected to Delhi,” the MP said.

Deepender said his government had left no stone unturned in the development of Hisar and worked with a vision to give a better future to the next generation.
