Congress President and UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi, who is on two day visit to her parliamentary constituency Raebareli said that society and the nation can move forward only if maximum people are educated. She was addressing the function to lay the foundation stone for the project of strengthening and broadening works of two roads on the National Highway 24 B in Indira Gandhi Auditorium at Firoz Gandhi PG College, Raebareli. This is Sonia Gandhi's first visit to the state after the recently held UP Assembly polls.
“There is no end for duties and responsibilities in our life and in the similar manner there is no end for the efforts for development of our country. The moment we accomplish a scheme, we can always see new avenues for development. We see new possibilities at each turn. It has been our sincere efforts to design new policies and schemes for the welfare of the people and to make the lives of the people more comfortable,” added the UPA Chairperson.
“The UPA Government at the Centre has implemented a number of welfare schemes aiming for the welfare of every section of our society and many people are reaping the benefits too. I think that society and the nation can move forward only if maximum people are educated. Education is the key for a better and bright future. The UPA Government at the Centre, has therefore, taken some strong steps in this direction. Approval has been given for one model school in every block and 75 percent of the cost is being given by the UPA government. In Uttar Pradesh money has been provided for 148 schools. In Raebareli district too, the works are in progress for three model schools and the permission has been given for a Central school in Bachcharawa. Permission has been given to start all primary sections at the Central School in Gora Bazar which would be very much beneficial for the children in Raebareli” continued Sonia Gandhi.
The MP from Raebareli further said that Rae Bareli being the "karmbhoomi" of late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, it was her wish that a girls' degree college should be build in her memory. “Raebareli was Indira Ji’s karmbhoomi. It has been my dream since long to build a Mahila Mahavidyalay in the memory of Indira Gandhi. I am very happy to inform you that Human Resource and Development Ministry has already taken initiave for a Mahila Mahavidyalay here. State government has also shown positive stand in giving land. As soon as land is provided necessary steps would be taken immediately to make this project a reality and the college will be named after Indira Gandhi”, she said.
