“About 2 lakh government posts are lying vacant in Haryana and the State is facing severe unemployment. But instead of making permanent recruitment against these posts, the government is continuously carrying out scams in the name of recruitment. New methods of paper leaks are being adopted by the government,” alleged Mr. Hooda, who was addressing a press conference here, along with the party’s State president Chaudhary Udaybhan.
