We will fulfill the promise
We have formed a cabinet with new faces and seniors. People have supported us, so we have to fulfill our promises and we will work to deliver the guarantees to the people.
The opposition has not fulfilled the promise given to the people, we will follow our promise. We are getting figures from the officials and said that we will fulfill five promises in the next cabinet.
