“Govt would provide connecting
roads, water, electricity & other facilities etc., but would not give land
to start new educational institutes because govt doesn’t own the land & land
belongs to farmers. An entrepreneur should start Educational Institutes in the
rural areas instead of big cities and atleast 30% seats should be given to the
economically backward students.”This was said by His Excellency the Governor of
