Some parties are greedy for power, have nothing to do with development: CM Pushkar Singh Dhami

Slamming the opposition parties, Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Sunday said that some parties are greedy for power and have nothing to do with the development of the state.

Union Minister Anurag Thakur and Dhami participated in the launch program of Vijay Sankalp Yatra in Bageshwar.

Addressing a public gathering, Dhami said, "Some parties are greedy for power. They are not interested in the development of the state. During their rule, they performed antics and did not work."

Lauding the efforts of the Centre in developing Uttarakhand, Dhami said, "There was a demand from all of you that the work of Tanakpur-Bageshwar railway line should be approved and its work should start soon. I thank Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji that the work of Detailed Project Reports (DPR) of this project has started."

"We had announced that we will provide tablets to the students studying in schools and colleges. We will make available its money in the account of students through DBT," he said.

He added, "We are working continuously to take Uttarakhand forward. Our target is that in near future the recruitment process should be completed and all the vacant posts should be filled."

Further speaking at the event, the Chief Minister said, "Whatever our government announces, it will fulfill it and will take it to the grassroots. All the announcements we have made, their mandates are being fulfilled."

Ahead of Uttarakhand assembly polls, Chief Minister said that seeing such a huge crowd in Vijay Sankalp Rally, he believes that everybody has again decided to make the lotus bloom in Devbhoomi.

On Saturday, BJP president JP Nadda took out a Vijay Sankalp Yatra in Haridwar. Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami had also participated in the 'yatra'.

Uttarakhand Assembly elections are scheduled for next year. In the 2017 Uttarakhand Assembly elections, BJP won 57 seats, Congress won 11 seats and two seats were won by others.
