Minister for Transport and Scheduled Tribes Welfare B. Sriramulu has appealed to students to make the best use of the benefits being extended by the government and pursue higher education to lay a strong foundation for a better society.
He was addressing a gathering after inaugurating post-matriculation hostels in Sirwar, Maski and Sindhanur taluk of Raichur district on Friday.
Remembering his school days, the Minister said that he had no facility to get higher education. However, he pursued education despite all difficulties. “Now, the situation has changed and you are getting good facilities from the government which is providing all benefits to you to get good and quality education. By using these facilities, you should ensure that you become the strong pillars of society and also the nation,” he appealed.
