GURUGRAM: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday released its "sankalp patra" or manifesto for the upcoming civic body polls in the state, outlining key promises of land ownership rights, poverty alleviation and support for local businesses, besides addressing voters' demands on sanitation and infrastructure upgrades.

Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini launched the manifesto at the state BJP headquarters in Rohtak, in the presence of BJP state president Mohan Lal Badoli and senior party leaders.

Addressing the public after the release, CM Saini pitched for a "triple engine" BJP government —at the Centre, state and local levels—for improved civic governance.

"BJP has always worked towards the holistic development of Haryana. Our focus remains on better infrastructure, cleaner cities, and ensuring every citizen has access to essential services. With this manifesto, we reaffirm our commitment to making Haryana's urban areas more liveable and progressive," Saini said.

In its manifesto, the BJP promised to grant registry documents to families residing in urban and rural areas for over 20 years.

They further pledged financial relief to families living below the poverty line under the Swamitva Yojana, and assistance to street vendors and roadside hawkers by streamlining regulations for their operations.
