Smriti disappoints J&K; offers nothing during her maiden visit 8/20/2014 12:04:51 AM Early Times Report Jammu, Aug 19: The people of Jammu and Kashmir were left disappointed when Union Minister for Human Resource Development (HRD), Smriti Irani didn't make any announcement for the welfare of people of this lesser state on her first official visit here. Irani was in Jammu to address Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) workers convention and it was expected that she will make new announcements in Education sector but nothing came through except disappointment. People had high expectations from Irani's maiden visit to Jammu, from where BJP won both Lok Sabha seats, but her first day brought little cheer for the stake holders. The visit of every Union Minister to Jammu is wrapped with expectations as Jammu has supported the saffron party since ages; But Union HRD Minister didn't offer anything to the people even as several demands are pending in the office of the HRD Minister. Many areas in Jammu region are waiting that Central Government should sanction new Kendriya Vidyalayas for far off areas to boost the education sector, which could improve the standard of education in the periphery.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
