He said that the state government is implementing various welfare schemes, including ‘Ladki Bahin’, and workers should take these schemes to people.
Union environment minister Bhupendra Yadav, firmer minister Ravsaheb Danve, minister Murlidhar Mohil, Chandrakant Patil Suresh Khade, and others were present for the rally.
