He remarked that if Rahul Gandhi were a \u201cBabbar Sher\u201d (lion), he would not have been defeated.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">He also said that delimitation is underway in Haryana and the number of Lok Sabha and Assembly seats is increasing. Additionally, he said that transfers at any level within a department should be made with the knowledge of the concerned minister.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Sh. Vij was speaking to media persons today.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Reacting to Rahul Gandhi\u2019s statement where he said he is not afraid of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but rather that Modi is afraid of the Congress as a \u201cBabbar Sher\u201d would catch him and action would follow, Vij took a jibe saying this is why Rahul Gandhi is facing defeat in every state. He reiterated that Rahul Gandhi has lost many elections and added that if he were truly a \u201cBabbar Sher,\u201d he would not have been defeated.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><strong>\u201cBJP workers are active 365 days; will win all three municipal bodies\u201d \u2013 Vij\u2019s sharp attack on opposition<\/strong><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Responding to discussions on municipal corporation elections, Anil Vij said that the Bharatiya Janata Party is always ready for elections and will win in all three places. He criticized opposition parties, saying they become active only during elections, whereas BJP workers remain among the public throughout the year.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">He claimed that just as people of the state supported the policies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the development works of the state government in the Assembly and previous local body elections, the BJP will again emerge victorious in the upcoming municipal elections. He added that development work in all municipal corporations, including Ambala, will be further accelerated and the public will not be misled by the opposition\u2019s false promises.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><strong>\u201cDelimitation is underway in Haryana; seats increasing\u201d \u2013 Vij<\/strong><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">On the issue of delimitation, Vij described it as an important process. He said that delimitation is underway and the number of Lok Sabha and Assembly seats is increasing. All constituencies will be redrawn, and Haryana may have around 120 Assembly seats, with possible restructuring.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><strong>\u201cTransfers must be done with minister\u2019s knowledge\u201d \u2013 Vij<\/strong><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Regarding discussions on transfers in his departments, Vij said the matter is being misrepresented. He clarified that as per rules, transfers at any level should be carried out with the knowledge of the departmental minister and must proceed through his office. He mentioned receiving complaints where transfers were made directly, following which he issued written instructions.<\/div>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0a2e\u0a3e\u0a2b\u0a3c \u0a15\u0a30\u0a28\u0a3e, \u0a07\u0a39 \u0a16\u0a2c\u0a30 \u0a24\u0a41\u0a39\u0a3e\u0a21\u0a40 \u0a2c\u0a47\u0a28\u0a24\u0a40 \u0a2d\u0a3e\u0a38\u0a3c\u0a3e \u0a35\u0a3f\u0a71\u0a1a \u0a09\u0a2a\u0a32\u0a2c\u0a27 \u0a28\u0a39\u0a40\u0a02 \u0a39\u0a48\u0964 \u0a15\u0a3f\u0a30\u0a2a\u0a3e \u0a15\u0a30\u0a15\u0a47 \u0a07\u0a71\u0a25\u0a47 \u0a26\u0a47\u0a16\u0a4b\u0964 \u201cBJP workers are active 365 days; we will hoist the victory flag at all three places in the municipal elections\u201d \u2013 Anil Vij\u2019s sharp attack on the opposition \u201cDelimitation is underway in Haryana and the number of Lok Sabha and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":220184,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[181,182,122,4],"tags":[119610,1427,56731],"class_list":{"0":"post-220183","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-chandigarh","8":"category-haryana","9":"category-news","10":"category-politics","11":"tag-haryana-energy-minister-anil-vij","12":"tag-haryana-government","13":"tag-news-makhani"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/21"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=220183"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/220183\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/220184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=220183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=220183"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=220183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
