Khattar claimed that after the formation of the BJP government in Haryana, they “changed” the definition politics in the state. “We served people by considering them our family,” he said, adding that development works were carried out without any discrimination. “Earlier those who were in the government used to work for themselves and their relatives,” he said.

The BJP government stopped corruption, eliminated the culture of middle men in the state, he said, adding that recruitment was made on the basis of merit. “We gave fearless, discrimination-free and corruption-free governance,” he said.
