NARWANA (HARYANA): The Haryana government has waved off interest amounting to Rs 450 crore to the marginal farmers, petty shopkeepers and artisans in the state under the interest waving scheme of co-operative banks.
"This scheme can be extended if need arises so," Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Monday said while addressing a public gathering on the occasion of celebration of 127th birth anniversary of Sir Chhotu Ram here.
Hooda described Sir Chhotu Ram as a revolutionary who thought about the poor and downtrodden. He worked throughout his life to maintain the dignity of poor sections, he said.
Taking a dig at the opposition parties, the chief minister said some politicians were in a habit to create a feeling of regionalism which was not in the interest of the development of the state.
State Finance Minister Birender Singh said that Chhotu Ram waged a crusade against the exploitation of the poor people.
