So finally Musharaf came on the right track on Kashmir!! So when r they returning the Pakistan Occupied Kashmir to India?? That will resolve all problems between India and pakistan on kashmir. Otherwise we won't let the pakistanis live happily ever.
Equitable availability of Integrated Child Development Scheme Services. Under this some percentage of anganwadis will be located in heavy minority-populated areas.
Improving access to school education: again a percentage of schools will be located in minority locations.
Greater resources for teaching Urdu: Central assistance for recruitment and posting of Urdu language teachers in primary and upper primary schools in which at least one-fourth belong to that language group.
Modernising madrasa education: Old wine in new bottle. Sachar says only three per cent of Muslims go to madrasas. Then why spend crores for three per cent of 13 per cent?
Scholarships for meritorious students from minority communities. Grossly unfair.
Improving educational infrastructure through the Maulana Azad Education Foundation.
Self-Employment and wage employment for the poor under the government schemes (mainly) Swarnjayanti Gram Swarojgar Yojna, Swarnjayanti Shahary Rozgar Yojna, Sampurna Grameen Rozgar Yojna,
Upgradation of skill through technical training: ITIs to be located in areas predominantly inhabited by minority communities.
Enhanced credit support for economic activities: Not only the national Minorities Development & Finance Corporation helps the minorities, all the banks, government credit agencies and cooperatives to reserve a percentage of their loan disbursal for minorities.

Equitable share in rural housing scheme: a share of the rural housing schemes for minorities.
Improvement in condition of slums inhabited by minority communities: Even in slums the government discriminates. It wants to improve the condition of the slums predominantly occupied by minorities only.
Prevention of communal incidents: This is the best example of the government%u2019s communal colour. It wants to post police officials of the highest known efficiency, impartiality and secular record in the areas prone to riots. The rest of the country can do with less honesty and less efficiency.
Prosecution for communal offences: How does punishing the offender in riots come under the minority category is not explained but this is one of the salient points.
Rehabilitation of victims of communal riots: Again, putting routine administrative work of rehabilitating the victims of riots as a promise to minorities. The message is clear. Minorities are the victims, always.
Other than these the government has introduced the following schemes, exclusively for the minorities. In most of the schemes the economic criterion is of income below Rs. 2.5 lakh annually.
Free coaching and allied scheme
This is over and above the combined scheme being implemented from 2001, for SCs/STs/OBCs and minorities under the ministry of social welfare.
Other than the tuition fee to the coaching centres, the students will also get a stipend of up to Rs. 1500.

A separate budget and proposal for monitoring and disseminating the schemes. The government has invited applications from agencies to monitor and report back the progress so as to reach maximum benefit.
Merit-cum-means scholarship 20000 scholarships every year, maintenance allowance of Rs. 10,000 for hostlers and 5000 for day scholars plus the course fee up to Rs. 20,000
Post-matric scholarship: Students with just 50 per cent marks from the minority community can get this scholarship amount up to Rs. 10,000.
All these schemes and provisions would have been fine if the money came from the party funds of the UPA allies. That it goes from the tax paid by Indians, a category the UPA does not probably recognise any more, is objectionable.

This can happen only in India. The mighty congress was always minority appeaser and now too. Rajiv gandhi's father was a muslim and his wife is a christian. I am not sure what religion his children are following. India will move forward once it gets rid of this Congress dynasty rule.

Arey Chang Lee,
If not by We (Indians), who can. That's the reason you people are worried about India and trying encircle us. Your China's size, or power can do nothing. You have forgotten the history. The days are not far away to teach you a very good leasons. Both economically and militarily. Understand?

Dear Chang Lee, Kashmiris have nothing common with China: neither the looks nor the language, nor the food philosophy, etc.

There are lot many things common between a Madrasi and a UP bhaiya, which you are not able to see, because are a chinese!!
"The devil can cite scriptures for his purpose" What ever Mr Musharraf says be sure he will go back to his words or may be make a U turn on his statements. Its well known that he is being pressurised from other countries to resolve the Kashmir issue. Apart from this with his dwindling popularity in his home land this is the only way by which he can earn some respect from his people.
Mush Mia is getting bored of the great WAR being played between Wazir and Pak, so he thought lets entertain the people about some KASH talk !!!
by the way, i bet that some Congressi might be even contemplating on giving Bharat Ratna to Mush for being the Highest Achiver NRI and Capturing the 100% votes NRPs !!!
