Haryana's Chief Minister-designate Nayab Saini visited the Valmiki Temple to offer prayers. He stated that the double-engine government will propel the state forward at a rapid pace.

 October 17, in Panchkula, Haryana, Chief Minister-designate Nayab Singh Saini offered prayers at the Valmiki Temple on the occasion of Maharishi Valmiki Jayanti, ahead of his oath-taking ceremony.

Speaking at the event, Nayab Saini expressed his gratitude, saying, "It is a great fortune for me that today marks the birth anniversary of Lord Valmiki, who worked to eradicate social evils and delivered a significant message to society. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to worship at Lord Valmiki's feet. I extend my heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to all the people of the state on this auspicious occasion."

Commenting on the new government's formation, Saini remarked, "This double-engine government, in collaboration with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, will work to advance Haryana at a rapid pace."

He further noted that the trust the people have placed in the BJP is a result of Modi's policies. "I thank the people of Haryana. Today, individuals are securing government jobs in Haryana without any 'Kharcha or Parcha.' This has boosted confidence among the youth," Saini said.

Addressing the participation of NDA leaders in his oath-taking ceremony, Saini stated that it was a matter of pride. "It is an honor that senior NDA leaders and Chief Ministers from NDA-ruled states will be present at today's event," he added.

Haryana BJP president Mohan Lal Badoli emphasized that this day would be a landmark in Haryana's political history. "In the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the BJP will form its government for the third consecutive time in Haryana, and Nayab Singh Saini will take oath as Chief Minister for the second time. Chief Ministers, Union Ministers, and senior NDA leaders will attend this significant event. It is also special because it coincides with Lord Valmiki's birth anniversary," Badoli said.

Saini's oath will mark a new chapter for Haryana, with the ceremony set to take place in Panchkula, and NDA leaders invited to attend.

Following the swearing-in, an important NDA meeting will be held in Chandigarh from 3 PM to 5 PM. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the meeting, which coincides with Nayab Singh Saini's inauguration as Haryana's Chief Minister.

West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, and Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha arrived in Chandigarh to participate in the ceremony.

Nayab Singh Saini was selected on Wednesday as the leader of the Haryana BJP Legislature Party during a meeting chaired by Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Chandigarh.

The BJP is set to form its third consecutive government in Haryana, having secured 48 seats in the 90-member assembly, while Congress secured 37 seats, according to the results announced last week.
