"This time, we will fill the void left by the last Vidhan Sabha elections in the state and form the government with a full majority," Khattar was quoted as saying by PTI. According to the chief minister, there is no alternative to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.</p> <p>He also stated that the BJP is the only party in which a common worker can become an MLA, MP, CM, or PM.</p> <p>The BJP, which currently has 41 MLAs after winning the Adampur bypoll last year, had won 40 of Haryana's 90 seats in 2019 and had to form government with the support of the JJP, which has 10 MLAs.</p> <p>According to the report, Khattar also stated that development works worth Rs 2,500 crore have been completed in the Kalka assembly constituency over the last eight and a half years.</p> <p>He stated that Tikkar Tal is being developed as a tourism destination.
