Haryana govt to organise multiple foundation-laying events to mark one year celebration

Ahead of the upcoming Baroda by-poll elections, the Haryana government is all set to organise multiple foundation stone-laying functions across all the districts in the state on Tuesday, October 27. As the state govt led by BJP and JJP is completing one year of administration in the state multiple events have been organised; however no such function will be held in Sonipat due to the model code of conduct put in place due to the by-poll.

According to an order issued by Chief Secretary Vijai Vardhan to all the Divisional Commissioners and Deputy Commissioners stated that the foundation stones/inauguration of the projects will be carried out at the district level apart from speeches and highlighting the achievements of the government.
