Lok Satta criticizes free mobile phone scheme
Hare-brained schemes will not contribute to human resource development. The Government should focus on providing free quality education, healthcare and improvement of skills.
THE LOK Satta Party has demanded that the Government squash the Planning Commission proposal for free supply of mobile phones to the poor.
Mr. Varma pointed out that schemes aimed at garnering voters are counter- productive and recalled how farmers even to this day are finding it difficult to get bank loans in the wake of the UPA I Government's loan waiver scheme. The scheme had failed even to arrest the tendency among farmers to commit suicide.
