Accusing Rajasthan government of neglecting rural areas, PCC President Sachin Pilot today said that various developmental projects in these areas were pending with the government not focusing on their completion.
Construction of various roads, flyovers, school buildings, community halls, primary health center buildings was pending across the state for many months but the government was not serious about them and just misleading people, he said.
Pilot, who was addressing public meetings in Nagaur and Jodhpur district, said that the government has also failed to provide any kind of relief to farmers of the state.
He claimed that people of the state could not get actual relief from reduction in crude oil prices because the state government increased duty on fuel prices when the prices of the diesel and petrol were reduced.
He also called upon party workers to work hard to ensure that party candidates emerge victorious in the Panchayati Raj election, party's state vice president Archna Sharma said.
