Speaking at the swearing-in ceremony in Panchkula, he urged them to rise above political affiliations and work with dedication for the betterment of society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event marked the oath-taking of newly elected mayors, municipal council and municipal committee presidents, and members across Haryana. Congratulating them, CM Saini emphasized that the recent civic elections had demonstrated the people\u2019s preference for development, transparency, and good governance. He encouraged representatives to strive towards making cities prosperous, clean, safe, drug-free, and self-sufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chief Minister assured the representatives that the Haryana government would provide full support for urban progress. He underlined that cities reflect the state\u2019s growth, as visitors assess urban areas based on their development. He urged the newly elected members to act as guardians of Haryana\u2019s prosperity by implementing government schemes efficiently and ensuring visible development on the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Commitment to Key National Initiatives<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>CM Saini reminded the audience that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had launched the \u201cBeti Bachao Beti Padhao\u201d campaign from Haryana, and the state had exceeded its target for electing women representatives in the civic polls. He noted that this success showcased the government\u2019s commitment to women\u2019s empowerment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Addressing cleanliness, he cited PM Modi\u2019s Swachh Bharat initiative and urged local body representatives to ensure their municipalities, municipal councils, and corporations ranked at the top in cleanliness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chief Minister also highlighted the fight against drug abuse, stressing the importance of the \u2018Mans\u2019 portal, a platform to report drug-related activities, monitored by Union Home Minister Amit Shah. He encouraged representatives to actively report any drug-related issues in their wards to curb the menace effectively while ensuring informants\u2019 anonymity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transparency and Efficient Budget Utilization<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>CM Saini emphasized the importance of transparency and integrity in governance.

He highlighted Haryana\u2019s significant role in Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s vision for a self-reliant and developed India by 2047. With BJP\u2019s continued governance in the state, he stated that the \u201cdouble-engine government\u201d had now transformed into a \u201ctriple-engine\u201d government, ensuring rapid development with enhanced cooperation between local, state, and central authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To further support municipal development, CM Saini announced the release of \u20b9587 crore under the State Finance Commission for infrastructure projects. Additionally, he inaugurated new online portals and the updated website of the urban local bodies department to streamline services and enhance transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chief Minister concluded by reaffirming his commitment to fast-paced development, stating that Haryana would contribute significantly to achieving the vision of a developed India by 2047.
