Umar Teekay, Honorary President of MEIF, opined and expressed immense hope under the leadership of Education Minister Madhu Bangarappa, the son of former Chief Minister Bangarappa, who gained huge popularity across the state, that a couple of revolutionary things will be done in the field of education.
Amidst calls for educational progress, Syed Beary also expressed his disappointment over U.T. Khader being given the speaker's position instead of a ministerial role. He acknowledged Khader's capabilities and hoped that he would excel even as the Speaker. If a leader of Khader's stature and capabilities had got ministerial position it would have helped the common people immensely, said Mr Beary.
