The Haryana government's welfare schemes have brought prosperity to the people of the state, Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar said on Thursday.
Addressing a gathering during his Jan Samvad programme at Bilaspur in Yamunanagar district, Khattar said people are easily availing of the benefits of government schemes through the Parivar Pehchan Patra (Family ID) scheme.
No other state has such a scheme, he claimed and added that the government's welfare measures have brought prosperity to the lives of Haryana residents.
In the past nine years, the lives of Haryana residents have been made prosperous through comprehensive development works and welfare schemes carried out by the state government, he said.

He assured that every complaint or demand letter people give will be thoroughly scrutinised and addressed.
The chief minister expressed his deep connection with Bilaspur in Yamunanagar, where he lived for a long time. He said his memories come alive when names of the local mela, the Saraswati river and other historical places are mentioned, according to the statement.
