We are able to fulfil most of them. Still, two more years are left, but we have already fulfilled 3/4th of the promises which we made in the 2023 elections. By organising this kind of an event, we are telling the people that whatever we promised, we have delivered... There is a flagship program in the revenue department. For years and years, people have not got their records... so that has been a very important program in the revenue department. More than 14 lakh people have been given the right to the records at various levels. That is another flagship program we are celebrating." While talking to the reporters, Congress MLA and KKRDB Chairman, Dr Ajay Singh said, "......We have implemented all five guarantees... An amount exceeding Rs 1.25 lakh crore has reached the last person living in the villages. Karnataka has a population of approximately 7 crore, and everyone has benefited from this... Our government walks the talk... There is a demand for a cabinet reshuffle, and I, too, am one of the aspirants... Whatever decision the party high command takes, all MLAs and ministers will abide by it..."
