Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Wednesday urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to bring Right to Social Security Act and implement it in the entire country. “I would like to demand that the prime minister formulate Right to Social Security Act as the Manmohan Singh government brought four Acts – Right to Information Act, Right to Education Act, Food Security Act and Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act…you should be on the same line to formulate the 5th Act, the Social Security Act,” the CM said. Getting Right to Health Bill passed in Rajasthan Assembly is a big achievement for the state government and a similar bill should be brought by the Centre in Parliament, Gehlot said. Gehlot termed OxyZone City Park a “masterpiece” in the country and called upon other public representatives to get inspired by developmental works carried out in Kota by Urban Development and Housing Minister Shanti Dhariwal.
