The newly appointed Haryana cabinet ministers wasted no time getting to work after receiving their portfolios, with several ministers conducting immediate inspections and holding urgent meetings with district officials to address pressing public concerns.
Water Crisis and Rural Development Take Center Stage
Women and Child Development Minister Shruti Choudhry has positioned equitable water distribution as her top priority, particularly focusing on south Haryana's chronic water shortages. "I want 100% implementation of the schemes formed by the Centre and the state government," Choudhry stated, giving district administration officials one month to submit progress reports on water accessibility projects.
Meanwhile, Panchayat & Development Minister Krishan Lal Panwar has committed to accelerating development across Haryana's 6,000+ panchayats. "Development works have to be done on priority, and no laxity by any official will be tolerated," Panwar emphasized during his first administrative meeting in Panipat.
Education and Healthcare Reform Plans
Education Minister Mahipal Dhanda has set an ambitious goal of making Haryana the number one state in education, improving upon its current third-place ranking according to NITI Aayog. His plans include modernizing government schools with advanced technology and enhancing basic infrastructure.
Health Minister Arti Rao announced plans to establish multi-specialty civil hospitals in every district, promising to expand healthcare access to rural areas. "Every single village, town, and colony should have access to healthcare," Rao declared, with a particular focus on improving women's healthcare services.
Infrastructure and Environmental Conservation
Transport Minister Anil Vij made headlines by personally inspecting bus stands and suspending an official over poor maintenance, while Industries Minister Rao Narbir pledged to restore the Aravalli forest's glory by tackling illegal construction and mining.
The ministers' swift action and concrete plans signal a new phase in Haryana's administrative approach, with a clear focus on practical solutions to long-standing issues affecting citizens' daily lives.
