JAMMU, May 28: Senior BJP leader and Minister of State for Education, Technical Education, Culture, Tourism, Department of Horticulture, Floriculture and Parks, Priya Sethi today said that both State as well as Central governments were committed to make Jammu and Kashmir a self reliant State for which liberal funds are being provided and all three regions are witnessing an equitable massive infrastructural development.
While addressing a meeting of party leaders and workers of Nagrota after launching a mass contact programme in the Constituency assigned by party High Command, she said  austerity measures adopted during past few years have not only helped governments to save public money but also win over confidence of masses.
Priya said sanctioning of AIIMS, IIT, IIM and strengthening of schools and colleges in Jammu and Kashmir are some of the key decisions that were aimed at helping students get quality education at their doorsteps. Urging party workers and leaders to take programmes and policies of Narendra Modi Government at the Centre to masses, the BJP leader said that projects like Soil Health Card Scheme, Swatchh Bharat Abhiyan, Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana, Integrated Ganga Conservation Mission, Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao Yojana, Digital India Programme, Housing for All By 2022 and Atal Pension Yojna are all helping people live an honourable life.
She said unlike past Modi government at the Centre has 65 Ministers as compared to previous government’s 80.  That’s 20% less and aimed at cost savings. Dissolution of Committees and Planning Commission which were adding nothing much to the real development were again a major bold decisions taken during past three years after which responsiveness of the government has increased.
She also highlighted various other measures taken by Modi Government during last three years for the welfare of people.
