He said that instead of being arrogant, the government of India should also learn from states and implement their good schemes at the national level.
“Why should not families compulsorily get weekly money like other countries. This will help in running the families and only those who need it will get. This is called social security. You go to London, America , social security is everywhere, he said. He also highlighted various schemes and programmes launched in his state for the common people.
