Jaipur, Jan 30 (NationPress) The Deputy District Election Officer of Jaipur, Ashish Kumar, has instructed all department leaders to provide paid leave on the day of voting to officials and staff in the Jaipur district who are registered voters in the Delhi NCR regions.
He mentioned that department heads, boards, corporations, and public enterprises have been empowered to sanction paid leave upon request.
The Labour Department has also mandated that all employees, including casual workers in both private and government sectors within the Jaipur district, receive paid leave if they are registered voters of the Delhi NCR.
Previously, emphasizing ‘Modi Ki Guarantee’, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh assured voters in Delhi that the commitments made in the BJP's Sankalp Patra (Manifesto) would be honored by the party’s forthcoming administration.
He conducted two public gatherings in support of BJP candidates Bhuvan Tanwar from Delhi Cantt and Om Prakash Sharma from Vishwas Nagar.
During his address, Singh observed that during the Lok Sabha elections, the people of India placed their trust in the BJP, leading to the election of Narendra Modi as Prime Minister for a third term.
“The strength of a leader is rooted in the people’s trust. A promise made is a promise kept,” he stated, emphasizing PM Modi's fulfillment of commitments.
“The BJP is a party that delivers on its promises. If you can point to a single instance where we haven’t met our commitments, I will personally apologize. Our manifestos from 2014 to 2024 reflect our success in delivering on our pledges. If we say we will do something, you should support us,” the Defence Minister asserted.
Following the Congress party's departure, numerous political factions emerged, but none managed to establish a government at the national level. Those that did, remained in power for merely six months or less. The BJP's success in the last three Lok Sabha elections is attributed to its development and welfare initiatives, he remarked.
Singh pointed out that the Aam Aadmi Party rose to power on the promise of Jan Lokpal, but their administration is now faltering due to corruption.
