New Sectors

As part of this initiative, sectors 14, 16, and 22 in Kotbilla area of Panchkula and sector 23 in Pinjore-Kalka are being developed as pilot projects. 

"These new sectors will provide modern residential and commercial spaces for our growing population and will be developed with state-of-the-art infrastructure," CM Saini explained.

Employment and Welfare Initiatives 

The government has also outlined several welfare measures focused on women's empowerment and employment generation. According to the Chief Minister, the state had set a target of creating five lakh 'Lakhpati Didis' (women earning at least one lakh rupees annually). "Two lakh women have already achieved this milestone, and we aim to create three lakh more in the coming years," he said.

Women employed through the Haryana Kaushal Rozgar Nigam will be granted an additional special leave each month. The Chief Minister also announced that legislation to crack down on illegal immigration agents who send youth abroad through irregular channels (known as 'Dunki route') will be introduced during the current budget session. 

Gaushalas and Agricultural Support 

In a significant move for animal welfare and rural development, CM Saini announced that cow sanctuaries (Gau Abhyaranyas) will be established in all districts of Haryana in a phased manner, similar to the existing ones in Panipat, Hisar, and Panchkula. He also revealed that ₹216 crores has been sanctioned for gaushalas (cow shelters) in January.

"Panchayats will now be able to lease grazing land to gaushalas at nominal rates for establishing new shelters and growing fodder," the Chief Minister stated.

In support of farmers, the government has decided to purchase Kinnow (a citrus fruit) at Minimum Support Price (MSP), providing price security to fruit growers in the state.

With these comprehensive announcements, the Haryana government has set the stage for rapid development across multiple sectors. "In our 100-day tenure, the BJP government has already fulfilled 19 commitments, and work is underway to complete the remaining 14 promises soon," CM Saini concluded.
