Nayab Saini takes over as Haryana CM, announces free dialysis services in first major decision

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini visited the ministers’ offices to ensure their stay and distribute sweets as a gesture of goodwill on the occasion of formation of the majority government for the third time. During his visit to Anil Vij, Saini highlighted that his administration has grown enormously in the last decade. He highlighted a major initiative of free dialysis services for critically ill kidney patients in all public hospitals, which will be extended to medical colleges in the future.

Government response to opposition demands

Saini condemned the opposition for creating a narrative that misled the public, stating that citizens rejected these allegations. He accused the opposition of inciting farmers and destroying the confidence of the youth. At a recent meeting of the Council of Ministers, it was decided that the government would purchase rice grains at the Minimum Support Price (MSP), further helping farmers in the region.

In the cabinet meeting, Haryana CM announced that the state government will fulfill the promise made in its election manifesto and provide free kidney treatment. “We have signed a document regarding this scheme and the Haryana government will pay for the kidney transplant,” he said. Saini thanked the people of Haryana for their support, saying the recent term was a strong support for Prime Minister Modi’s policies.

The chief minister also criticized the opposition, especially the Congress, for allegedly trying to provoke farmers and sow doubts among the youth. “The people of Haryana have rejected the cause of the opposition and welcomed the historic steps taken by Prime Minister Modi in favor of farmers in the last decade,” he said, highlighting the state’s commitment to its sportspersons, whom he referred to as “the pride in our country.”

On a related note, Saini confirmed that the Cabinet meeting upheld the Supreme Court’s decision on the SC classification. “We will implement what the Supreme Court determined in relation to the SC classification,” he added.
