Thus, in the last 8 years, the state government has done more than 100 works of system change to ensure better service delivery to the common man. Manohar Lal said that 5S that is Shiksha, Swasthaya, Suraksha, Swabhiman and Swavlambhan are the basic necessities and realizing the same the present State Government is continuously working towards fulfilling these basic needs.

Narendra Modi has called for the implementation of the New Education Policy - 2020, because only through education a person can become cultured, asserted the Chief Minister. Manohar Lal said that in today's era more emphasis is being laid on skill development besides academics Realizing the same, Haryana Government has also established Shri Vishwakarma Skill University in the state to promote skill development. In this, skill training is being imparted to the youth in various fields. He said that youth should aim to become job givers instead of job seekers.

It is pivotal that the Youth should be targeted to do something for the country and for this it is necessary to organize a programme like The Governance Challenge. The Chief Minister said that Haryana has continuously tried new experiments to change the system. He said that it was not possible to collect the real time data of the population, so the State Government started a unique scheme - Parivar Pehchan Patra (PPP) in which authentic, verified and reliable data of all families in Haryana has been created in a digital format.
