GP Pruthi has never skipped voting in any election. 8220;I8217;ve been voting ever since I became eligible,8221; says Pruthi. He believes it is very important to vote to get the right representatives. 8220;Often people do not go to vote and then complain against elected representatives. If we want the right candidate in power, we need to cast our vote,8221; says Pruthi.
On coordination between various govt agencies:
Pruthi feels various arms of the government do not work in tandem. 8220;If a government agency builds a road, within a week another digs it up either to lay sewerlines or water pipelines. As a result, our roads are always in bad shape,8221; says Pruthi. 8220;All government agencies should ensure they coordinate with each other and prevent wastage of public money,8221; he says.
On govt schools in Shalimar Bagh:
8220;Shalimar Bagh has three excellent government schools. All three have excellent buildings, infrastructure and high academic standards. These schools can set an example for others. And this is only possible if the government makes the effort,8221; he says.
