Priyanka Gandhi slams govt for not providing relief package to Wayanad, says it's playing politics
Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Saturday accused the Centre of denying assistance to landslides-affected people of Wayanad due to politics and asserted that there should be no discrimination in times of natural disasters. Her remarks came after MPs from Kerala, including Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi, staged a protest in Parliament premises Saturday, demanding a relief package from the Centre for landslides-hit Wayanad.
Staging their demonstration in front of the steps of the Makar Dwar, the MPs raised slogans calling for «justice for Wayanad». They also held a banner with «Justice for Wayanad, provide relief package for Wayanad» written on it
Speaking with reporters, Priyanka Gandhi said, «We are very disturbed by the fact that the government is refusing to give a special package to Wayanad. We have gone to the home minister, we have written to the prime minister and to everyone possible, to declare that this as a calamity of a severe nature and to give a special package.»
Similar large-scale destruction took place in Himachal Pradesh where the Congress is in power and there also they have been demanding for the longest time that the Centre provides assistance, she said.
