Governor of Kerala Nikhil Kumar, who is on a private visit to the State, rued inadequate development of Jharkhand and requested State bureaucrats to make pro-investment policy to reach the goals for which Jharkhand was carved out.
“Jharkhand was created because it needed a special treatment. You need to ask whether the goals for which it was created has been fulfilled or not,” said Governor of Kerala. The Governor linked development of tribals of the State with investments and urged bureaucrats of the State to create an environment conducive for investments.
“If you want development of tribals then it is necessary to bring more investments in the State otherwise it will become a state like Chhattisgarh,” said Governor of Kerala adding “investment that will come in the State will help in achieving the goals for which Jharkhand was formed.” The function was organised at SN Sinha Institute of Business Management (SNIBM) to mark 126th Birth Anniversary of AN Sinha, first Deputy Chief Minister of undivided Bihar, Governor of Kerala said Sinha played very important role in the development of the tribals of Jharkhand and the State.
“The PSUs which were going to other States were set up in Jharkhand. Anugrah babu had to do convince the CM of Bengal to have the unit of Damodar Valley Corporation setup in the State,” added Governor of Kerala.
Governor of Kerala, also the grandson of AN Sinha said, “Anugrah babu was known as someone who has build the State.” Kumar met with the Governor of Jharkhand, Syed Ahmed at Raj Bhawan on June 15. Governor Syed Ahmed presented a memento to the Governor of Kerala.
