Responding to a pension complaint of a 60-year-old unmarried man during “Jan Samvad”, Khattar said the government plans to introduce a scheme. Earlier, the Chief Minister had planted seedlings in the Community Center building.

He also announced the construction of a model Sanskrit school in the village. He directed the concerned officers to build a new building for the Government School and a road from Kachua to Kalambura within two months.

Khattar also announced the construction of a volleyball court in the public school and the renovation of a pool. He also directed the Deputy Commissioner to provide internet connection to all villages in Karnal.

“Nowadays, 70 per cent to 80 per cent of work is done online and that is why it is necessary to have internet service in villages. Karnal will be the first district where BSNL internet service will be available in every village.”
