Former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda has said that if Congress comes to power in the upcoming state assembly polls, they will extend the metro line from Gurugram to Manesar.

Addressing a conference of Congress workers, Hooda stated that the Congress party accomplished the “historic” task of bringing Delhi Metro service to Gurugram, Faridabad, Ballabhgarh, and Bahadurgarh in Haryana.

He claimed that the extension of the service to other parts halted after the BJP assumed power in the state.

“Gurugram, which the Congress was developing as a global city, has been left with heaps of garbage, traffic problems and sewerage issues by the BJP,” Hooda said.

He also alleged that law and order have collapsed in the state, leaving people feeling unsafe.

“Gurugram, which used to be the first choice of investors, has stopped getting new industries and institutions. During the Congress tenure, 70 per cent of Japan’s investment was invested in Gurugram and Manesar. But today, even the already established industries are migrating and companies are retrenching workers and employees,” Hooda said.
