Fruits of economic development must reach every section of society: V Prez

Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu has said that the fruits of economic development must reach every section of the society, particularly the poorest of the poor. <br/><br/>He was addressing the gathering after inaugurating All India Gandhian Constructive Workers Conference organized by Harijan Sevak Sangh at Gandhi Ashram in New Delhi today. <br/><br/>He said, while the governments will continue with their welfare programmes for the poor and the needy, every conscientious citizen must try to make a difference to the lives of the underprivileged. <br/><br/>He said, the divisive walls erected in the minds of the people in the name of caste, religion or social hierarchy will have to be removed. Mr Naidu said, the New India, which the people are envisaging to build, has to be free of poverty, discrimination, atrocities on women and weaker sections, corruption, religious extremism, terrorism and regionalism. He said, India is on the cusp of a big transformation and the skills and the talents of the educated youth will have to be fully tapped for development of the country.
