Bangalore: Karnataka Governor on Tuesday stated here at an Awards presentation ceremony that the courtside had not developed in India because of continuous neglect over the years (mostly under Congress rule).
Rural sector did not secure adequate attention, thus India remained backward, HR Bhardwaj stated.
Infrastructure facilities in backward areas in GPS’ like schools, toilets, hospitals, homes, road connections are lacking in six decades of free India. He pointed out that only urban areas had benefited all these years. But where farmers live in thatched huts or tiled cottages, what benefits have come to them, he enquired of planners.
Social discrimination should go once for all, he pronounced, while giving away Nirmal Gram Puraskars (Clean village awards) to village heads in a function held on Tuesday in the capital of Karnataka.
