Madhya Pradesh chief minister-designate Kamal Nath said Friday that strengthening the farm sector, ensuring safety of women and job creation will be his priorities.

He also said that the promise of farm loan waiver made by the Congress will be fulfilled.

"Our priority will be to strengthen the agriculture sector to ramp up farm-based economy in Madhya Pradesh," he told reporters at his residence here.

"My government will provide a safe environment to women and shore up employment avenues for the youth," Nath said.

An alarming number of cases of crime against women in the state in the last couple of years has been a matter of concern.

"We are going to waive farmers' loans as promised," Nath said, adding, "I thank the people from the bottom of my heart for voting for the Congress. I assure them I will never let them down."
