Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das inaugurated the Haj House here on Tuesday on the eve of Eid-ul-Fitr.
Inaugurating the Rs-50 crore Haj House, which can accommodate about 1,000 people for offering Namaaz, Das said his government had faith in winning the confidence of all the people.
"This is the reason that the state government has fulfilled an old demand of members of the Muslim community -- constructing a modern and grand Haj House," he said.
"Development is the only solution to every problem and our government is working continuously for development," he added.
The projects of the BJP-led government at the Centre were being implemented in the state, Das said, adding that the central and state governments were not working for any particular community as every citizen was important.
In a veiled attack on the opposition parties, the chief minister said those who projected themselves as "well-wishers" of the Muslim community never thought about them, while alleging irregularities even in the construction of the Haj House.
