Mahendragarh, October 30

The BJP government is studying a proposal for an adequate quota to the Valmiki community in all HUDA sectors, said Education and Tourism Minister Ram Bilas Sharma during a social function at a Valmiki temple in Narnaul town, about 25 km away from here, recently.

“I have suggested to Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar to ensure at least 10 per cent quota for this community in HUDA sectors ,” said Sharma.

The minister said the previous UPA Government policy not to fail any student from Class I to VIII had compromised the level of education but the BJP government had decided to restore the previous system.

Sharma said the government would soon restore the services of those guest teachers who were terminated a few months ago. The announcement in this regard would be made before Diwali after getting approval from Punjab and Haryana High Court, he added.
