Students from all over the country who reached Lucknow on the ‘Good Governance Yatra’ met Arun and held a discussion. During the discussion with the students, Arun made the students aware of how the government has curbed corruption and crime in the state through good governance.
“Organised crime has been eliminated by equipping the police force with resources, the pleasant result of which is that today lakhs of crores of rupees of investment is coming into the state and the youth are getting employment opportunities. Be it pension scheme or mass-marriage, help is reaching the beneficiaries directly in their accounts through Jan Dhan accounts, due to which government assistance is reaching eligible citizens in a transparent manner,” said Arun.
