Now, such incidents have been eradicated, and actions are being taken against the offenders. Today, 21,000 young people have received their appointment letters. This is a significant transformation."

Emphasizing the state's advancement, the Prime Minister stated that Rajasthan is on a fresh path of development under the BJP's double-engine government.
