Moreover you have given such great examples to illustrate your point well. I really appreciate whatever steps you have been taking for the welfare of our nation so as to remove it from the clucthes of poverty.<br />Unfortunately there are millions of people under BPL category but they don’t get there rights which they deserve & even if they get there rights they have to pay a huge sum of money to people sitting at the high post. They are merely disgrading the pride of our state by taking bribes from poor people, thereby harassing them. Thus you have put before a very bitter truth which doesnot sounds well but at the same time it is the truth .<br />Therefore I salute your thoughts which has been making all of us aware of the present condition of our state.<br />With kind regards......Er.
