Union minister Mahesh Sharma said on Thursday that both central and state governments have expeditiously and transparently implemented developmental schemes in the last five years.
He said the Rajasthan government has taken various labour reforms to boost investment and industrial production besides creating job opportunities in the state.
"Rajasthan is progressing as fast as a developing state by shedding away the BIMARU tag," Sharma said at a press conference here.
He said the BJP is a cadre-based party with having its policies, leadership and intention very clear.
"The vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is to take the country and the state on the development path rising above the religion and caste barriers," the union minister said.
