    Who is the board and for what Rs6.5 crore. Govt should focus on building houses for homeless & poor donating such funds to these organisations. Giving RS6.5 croses govt has to keep aside another similar amount for the security of the nation to prevent threat of bombs and name it more. My humble request for govt is focus on education for minority youth namely muslisms who can use talent for growth of the nation rather handover the funds to these idiots.
