It is proved that Raj Bhavan is not for people but a place for luxury and extravagence.when we have no school and no teacher in remote villages ,our govt is spending in sophesticated way.
ReplyDeleteIt is too much. It would have been a new luxurious building. It is unjustifiable why so much of money has been spent...
ReplyDeleteTome to think for amendment in Constitution to abolish the post of governor and other ornamental posts
ReplyDeleteTime to think for amendment in Constitution to abolish the post of Governor and other ornamental posts.
ReplyDeleteWhen money is not available for schools and hospitals in remote areas, this lavish spending for luxury is unjustified. This speaks of the moral ethical values of the Raj Bhavan Staff including that of the Governor. Indeed, a time has come to debate on abolition of the post of Governor, a titular head.
