New Delhi: With Manohar Lal Khattar completing 100 days in office in his second stint as the Haryana Chief Minister, state Congress president Kumari Selja on Friday dubbed the 100-day period as a jumla.

Addressing a press conference here, Selja attacked the Khattar-led government in Haryana, claiming that many MLAs of the ruling BJP-JJP coalition were pointing fingers at their own government.

She said the government completing 100 days in office should not be looked as an achievement but just a 'jumla'.

Referring to the Deputy CM Dushyant Chautala's JJP, she said that the government was surrounded by people who had earlier cursed the BJP and vice versa.

Escalating her attack on the government, Selja said that all experts were raising questions on the paddy 'scam' and claimed that the pension amount being disbursed is inadequate.

Selja also hit out at the government over the state not getting water from the Sutlej Yamuna Link (SYL) Canal. She also said that the Union Budget did not promise much for the state.

Selja said PM Modi portrayed himself as the victim

Reacting to PM Narendra Modi's attack on the Opposition in the Parliament yesterday, Selja said that the Prime Minister always attempted to portray himself as the victim.

"He is obviously a victim, when the country's youth are questioning him," she said, adding that PM Modi should uphold the dignity of the post he is holding.
