    Different people have different understanding about the word "development". It is good if the government is more specific in its action plan so that the deserving people from that community can benefit from the scheme. Otherwise everyone would be under the impression that someone else may be utilizing the scheme.

    Some of the communities have got grants of crores. Is that grant used only to build community halls/Saudas or it reaches for welfare of poor people from those communities?

    All good gestures must be appreciated.
    Most of our coastal district people may not need it, but off course there will be economically weaker sections in all societies.
    Hope the VHP do not object and prevail upon BJP Govt over it.

    Master stroke by the CM. Never , ever, happened or would not have happened in Siddus or Congress regime. We have to appreciate the good things that BJP as a party does. No wonder we are seeing a tilt in affiliation of candidates contesting for MCC elections.

    Yes, master stroke, when the scheme is floated by BJp. If, In case if it were to be from Congress, the same approach would have been a case of minority appeasement.
    Thum kare tho........ Hum kare tho Chamatkar.
    Toffees are on offer from BJp expecting something as kickbacks. I hope people are clever enough to just accept the toffees, but not to change their rational and careful approach.
