He said in the state assembly that by the year 2047, when India is poised to become a USD 5 trillion economy, Haryana plans to contribute USD 1 trillion towards it.

The Chief Minister announced the abolition of the one per cent Haryana Rural Development Fund (HRDF) fee imposed on vegetable markets. He said previously, one per cent HRDF and one per cent market fee were imposed in the sabzi mandis across the state.

He also announced conferment of proprietary rights to 2719 families residing in four villages, who have built their houses on the land of Government Livestock Farm, Hisar and the inception of a high-level task force dedicated to Mission Haryana-2047.

Making the announcement in the assembly, Khattar said police commissionerate has already been established in the three Haryana districts which fall in NCR - Faridabad, Gurugram and Sonipat.
