 "Bhajanlal Sharma, Bhajanlal, Rajasthan CM")
Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma said Sunday his government has fulfilled 45 per cent of the promises made in the BJP's 'Sankalp Patra' ahead of the election.
He said the empowerment of youths, farmers and women and the welfare of the poor through policies and schemes are priority areas for his government.
Sharma said Prime Minister Narendra Modi released the 17th instalment of the Kisan Samman Nidhi soon after assuming office in his third term.
The country will be prosperous and happy only with the prosperity of farmers, he added.
The chief minister was addressing the felicitation ceremony of Union Minister of State for Agriculture Bhagirath Chaudhary in Kishangarh.
He said the Rajasthan government is working for the all-round development of all sections. "Our government has sped up work on the ERCP project in view of the water requirement of eastern Rajasthan," Sharma added.
