Union minister of External Affairs Salman Khurshid, Union Human Resources Development (HRD) Minister Pallam Raju and Planning Commission of India member Saiyeda Hameed have exhorted the Muslims to be part of the 12th plan period to take maximum benefit for their all round growth as well as for the country.
The 12th plan period starting from 2012-13 has given at least 15 pc share to the Muslims in all the welfare schemes which should be used properly for making the community educated and to be the part of the country's growth, the leaders said during a national conference on ' Unpacking the 12 plan-Minority chapter' here on Sunday.
Raking up the reservation issue for the Muslims, Khurshid alleged that some vested political forces have derailed the effort of the UPA government to provide reservation to the community.’ They do not want that anybody else take the credit and thus was trying to divide the community,’ he charged.
