Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal on Thursday courted controversy during his public outreach programme, Jan Samvad, for telling a woman, seeking a factory in her village for better job opportunities, that she would be sent to “moon in Chandrayaan-4” in the next phase of lunar mission.
Mr. Lal, interacting with the locals during the programme at Hisar, was talking about the success of the Self Help Groups in the State, when a woman among the audience demanded that a factory be set up in her village to create better job opportunities. As the woman insisted, Mr. Lal cut in to say that next time when Chandrayaan-4 will go to moon they would send her as well.
