The Haryana chief minister publicly criticised the AAP‑led Punjab government, saying the state's economic growth has lagged behind Haryana's.
The chief minister of Haryana took to the media to question the pace of economic development in neighboring Punjab, which is currently governed by the Aam Aadmi Party. He highlighted that Haryana's growth indicators have outperformed those of Punjab in recent years, suggesting a need for more aggressive policies in the latter state.
While refraining from naming specific figures, the Haryana leader urged the Punjab administration to adopt measures that could accelerate industrial and agricultural output. He pointed to recent infrastructure projects in Haryana as examples of initiatives that have spurred job creation and investment.
The remarks come amid broader inter‑state discussions on development strategies, with both governments expected to address the concerns raised during upcoming regional forums.
