Will speed up pending edu projects in country: Union min

Hazaribag: The Union minister of state for education, Annapurna Devi, on Tuesday criticised the opposition for its unruly behaviour in Parliament, leading to the end to the monsoon session three days before its scheduled time.
Speaking to reporters in Hazaribag on Tuesday, Annapurna, who began a three-day Jan Ashirwad Yatra on Monday to mark her one month in office, said during the monsoon session, 20 important bills were passed amid the pandemonium.
“Our opposition leaders do not want to see the development of the nation, particularly for the backward classes like Dalits, OBCs, minorities and women. More bills were to be passed related to secondary education and new IITs, but did not happen as the opposition didn’t allow the House to function,” she alleged.
Hailing Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his concern for the poor and the backward classes, Annapurna said Modi appointed 27 cabinet ministers, including women, Adivasis, minorities and Dalits among others, for their development.
On her yatra, the minister said is devoting herself to know about the ground situation of education through feedback from people and to work accordingly.
“Education in the country can be developed only through proper coordination between the Centre and the state,” she stressed, adding that several IITs, engineering colleges and other institutes initiated by the Union government in various states are still incomplete. “My aim will be to see how these projects can be completed as early as possible,” she said.
Hazaribag MP Jayant Sinha, local MLA Manish Jaiswal and officials of the state BJP unit were also present during the interaction.
