Union minister Smriti Irani today said unlike the previous governments that had forgotten about development, the BJP-led central government was working for the welfare of the people ever since it came to power.
The Union Information and Broadcasting Minister arrived here today on a two-day visit.
Addressing the gathering after inaugurating a medical camp in the district hospital, she said, "It had been common in the political history of India that after coming to power, people had forgotten about development and instead, concentrated on their own development."
Irani, who had unsuccessfully contested the 2014 Lok Sabha polls from Amethi against Congress president Rahul Gandhi, said, "I have come and soon, he (Gandhi) will also be arriving here."
