Union minister Manohar Lal Khattar has announced that libraries will be established in all 395 gram panchayats of Karnal district, Haryana. The move aims to provide coaching-like facilities for competitive exam preparation to rural youth at the village level. Khattar made the announcement during a visit to Nilokheri assembly constituency on Saturday, where he also addressed public grievances.
Khattar’s library plan sounds good, but it is only as useful as the books and internet connectivity it offers. Many panchayat buildings lie locked or lack basic supplies. The real test is whether these libraries will have updated study material and reliable power. In a district where 24-hour electricity is claimed under the Mhara Gaon-Jagmag Gaon scheme, can a library stay open after sunset?
