Well let us see how non-Muslims below the poverty line benefit from this or if any of this has anything to do with Quality of Life for Muslim Population in general
- Posting Muslims in Muslim Concentration Areas
- Appointing Urdu Teachers
- a Communal Violence Bill (doubt if Muslims benefit from this either)
- a central government run finance corporation to lend money exclusively to Muslims
- managing grave yards
This is purely a well thought out strategy for muslim appeasement. But I have doubts whether it will work for congress in next elections. Congress has been wooing muslims with this kind of schemes and plans since long. But since 1990s it has lost out on UP & Bihar - States with considerable muslim population & also must win states if u want to have foothold in national politics.I wonder whether Mulayam-Mayawati-Laloo will allow muslims to drift away to congress.With inputs from:
THE MODI MODEL
JYOTIRGRAM P0WER SCHEME:
The scheme ensures 24 hour, three-phase domestic power supply to all 18,000
GIRLS' EDUCATION SCHEME:
The main feature is that both ministers and IAS officers go to villages for three days in a year to persuade parents to send their daughters to school. lt has seen the girl drop, out rate in school sliding from 48 to three.
BETI BACHAO ANDOLAN:
The Beti Bachao drive of the Government aimed at preventing female foeticide Through a joint awareness campaign by government, NGO’s and people's Representatives has seen the sex-ratio improve from 802 to 870 since 2001.
The success of the Vibrant Gujarat Global Investment Summits hosted by Modi received recognition from RBI recently when it pegged the investment coming to
Gujarat registered the highest growth rate of 10.6 per cent in the country during the first four years of the 10th five-year plan that ended last March as against the National figure of 7 .2 per cent during the same period.
A largely populist-free model of governance that aims at accountability. lt also means few sops to people. In the power sector the government has not hesitated to slap cases on farmers indulging in power theft. This and other measures ensured that the state's power set-up wiped out a combined loss of Rs 2,200 crore and posted a profit of Rs 200 crore last year. The government could carry out power reforms better and faster than most other states.
The Government has tried to involve people in governance, creating a rare model of people's participation. For example, the urban development drive to upgrade small municipal towns last year sent the tax collections soaring simply because the people were motivated to pay their taxes. Developmental works worth Rs 300 crores were also carried out with the help of private donations. When it celebrated e-governance year last year the state got a huge number of computers as donations in villages from local residents.
ACHIEVEMENTS IN AGRICULTURE SECTOR:
The state has given soil health cards to more than half of the 38 lakh farmers in the state to enable them to comprehend the quality of the soil on their farms and decide on precise crop pattern and the right fertilisers. 700 scientists from the four agricultural universities of the state have been involved in educating the farmers on crop patterns and fertilisers. This move won praise from eminent agro scientist, M.S. Swaminathan.
The state has set up a unique security model based on tight vigilance and effective action due to which not a single terror attack has taken place in
