(Tamil Nadu) September 8, 2012.
“All
the states conceded to share 10 per cent of financial input, and the Centre
offered 90 per cent of contribution, for the Minorities’ Welfare Schemes, the
unfortunate thing that the BJP Chief Minister of Gujarat Narendra Modi bluntly
refused to accept the minorities’ schemes and Muslims, students are deprived of
such benefits” said E.Ahmed, Minister of State for external affairs and HRD, in
a conference at Kumbakonam in Tamil Nadu on Saturday September 8,2012.
