PANAJI: The Vice President of India, Jagdeep Dhankhar, said on Thursday that fiscal power has nothing to do with utilisation of natural resources, there has to be balance. Dhankhar was speaking after releasing the 200th book of Governor of Goa, P.S. Sreedharan Pillai, titled ‘Vaman Vriksha Kala’ at a function held here.
“We can’t take a stand that I will use water, petroleum, energy, gas because I can afford them. Fiscal power has nothing to do with utilisation of natural resources, there has to be a balance. We should have optimal utilisation of natural resources and if we do that, the pristine glory of the areas will be preserved,” Dhankhar said. (IANS)
