Lack of education a curse: MLA Badeti Bujji

Eluru: MLA Badeti Bujji has said that people often blame it on fate for poverty, but the real curse is lack of education.

Accompanied by mayor Shaik Noorjahan Pedababu, the MLA distributed bicycles to students of Kasturba Municipal Corporation Girls High School under ‘Badikosta’ programme here on Friday.  
    
Addressing students and parents, he said that education would bring knowledge and discipline to transform students into good citizens.  He called upon the parents to send their children to school without fail. 

They would earn good name for family, nation and society by achieving top positions in life, he said. The MLA said education in government schools is on par with corporate schools. 

Special plans are incorporated for improving success rate besides introduction of digital classrooms and English medium education at primary level.

Mayor Noorjahan Pedababu said everyone should get educated to achieve progress. Various schemes were introduced for encouraging students pursue education, she added.

She said Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has introduced ‘Badikosta’ to help girls reach school without fail by providing bicycles.
