Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini on Sunday said the state government, following Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s motto of “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, and Sabka Prayas,” is continuously working for the welfare and upliftment of all sections of society.
Saini announced that all demands made by the Khatik community through a memorandum would be met through the relevant departments and that he would provide ₹ 21 lakh to the community for public works.
“The state government is committed to the respect, safety, and welfare of sanitation workers. For this, the Haryana State Safai Karamchari Welfare Commission has been established.

He also stated that ₹ 1 crore has been allocated for the construction of a Dharamshala in the name of Sant Durbalnath and the government would celebrate Sant Durbalnath’s birth anniversary next year as a state-level event. He said that during the 1857 War of Independence, the Khatik community’s brave warriors were at the forefront of the fight against the British in Meerut and surrounding areas. Arrangements were made for the live broadcast at the Community Centre in Sector 10, where the CM joined public representatives, party workers and local residents to listen to the programme.
He said the government’s objective is to empower the last person in society socially and economically by extending the benefits of public welfare schemes to them. Additionally, the Haryana State Scheduled Castes Commission has been formed to protect the welfare and rights of Scheduled Castes,” he said.
