"This is one of the most welcome steps, when a Member of Parliament is himself taking such an initiative where he is asking people of other states to help children of his constituency. This is in the betterment of Ladakhi's, this will help students to make better citizens and make them qualified to compete with others. Before abrogation of article 370, one would go to state government for doing this and it was on state government weather they would give consent for this or not and now when it's union territory, MP is taking decisions," said BJP leader RP Singh.
