Former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda accused the state's BJP government of creating fake ration cards and sidelining local youth in recruitments. He claimed the number of ration cards surged significantly, leading to mass cancellations post-election, suggesting a vote-fixing tactic. Hooda also alleged that recruitment processes favored outsiders over Haryana's youth in key positions like assistant engineers and assistant professors, while criticizing the government's reduced promise for women's financial assistance.
