“No other government has done this during their tenure,” he said even as he reminded that education is the utmost priority of the present Government.
The Chief Minister also stressed that being in the Government is not a position to boast about or for personal enjoyment but one has to have a great responsibility, a position to make a difference in people’s life and the future of the children.
