राज्यसभा सीट पर पूर्व प्रधानमंत्री डॉ. मनमोहन सिंह जी का नामांकन प्रदेश के लिए गौरव का विषय है। आपके अनुभव से हम लाभान्वित होंगे। आर्थिक उदारीकरण से लेकर मनरेगा, शिक्षा का अधिकार जैसे फैसलों में आपकी भूमिका अविस्मरणीय रही है। मैं समूचे प्रदेश की तरफ से आपको शुभकामनाएँ देता हूँ। pic.twitter.com/ccutvq1xtC
