The recruitment drive has been carried out based on merit and jobs are being given only to deserving and needy candidates, the chief minister said. Slamming leaders of rival political parties, Mann said those who lived in palatial houses during their days in power have been ousted from the political scene of the state as they never bothered about the wellbeing of the common people.
