He said that the Congress had a culture of showing distrust to everything. "Whenever anything happens in the national interest, Congress never shows any confidence," he quipped.
Citing examples, the chief minister said that when the discussion of removing Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir was going on, Congress expressed disbelief that it could not happen. In the case of triple talaq, Congress also expressed disbelief. Not only that, Congress did not have confidence that the temple of Lord Rama could be built.
CM Lists His Govt's Achievements:
Highlighting corruption-free governance, transparency in government functioning and various developmental initiatives undertaken during the present government, he said that during the tenure of the present state government, jobs were being given to the youth without any 'Parchi-Kharchi' (political recommendations or bribes) and now even people had a trust in this government that a child belonging to a poor family could also get a government job on merit basis.
