NEW DELHI: A higher education awareness programme organised here over the past two months has ended with a vigorous appeal to the Government to provide better higher education facilities in Delhi’s rural areas and a better compensation package, including a portion of developed land, to villagers whose land is acquired by the authorities.
During its near two-month run, the programme organised by All-India Congress Committee member Naresh Kumar covered 150 villages of Delhi. Two huge public meetings were also organised during the programme that primarily sought better education facilities in the rural areas so that the children living there pursue higher education and become gainfully employed.
As part of the campaign, Lieutenant-Governor Tejendra Khanna was urged by Mr. Kumar to intervene in the matter.
