Gajendra Singh stuck his own dept’s ERCP plan: Min Joshi
Jaipur: Hitting back at Union Jal Shakti Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat for criticizing Rajasthan over performance in Jal Jeevan Mission, PHED Minister Mahesh Joshi said that the state is doing a good job despite adverse conditions.
Joshi said that Gajendra Singh is not liking the performance of Rajasthan but the performance of the state is better than those states which are considered good by the central ministry. He said that UM Singh has made parameters in such a way that Rajasthan’s performance automatically looks bad.
“There is shortage of drinking water in Rajasthan and unfavorable conditions and yet Rajasthan is doing a better job,” he said.
He accused Gajendra Singh of insulting Rajasthan. Joshi said that Rajasthan is on second place in expenditure under JJM while on the basis of parameters, the state stands at number 12. He said that Rajasthan has spent Rs 16566 crores on JJM.
