“The government is informing the number of crores of people coming to Kumbh, but till now the number of dead has not been mentioned. Even today, many people are searching for their near and dear ones lost in the Mahakumbh. This is the culmination of government insensitivity,” he alleged.
He said there is nothing for the farmers and the youth in this Governor’s address. ”Educated youths are wandering for jobs. There are only figures in the name of investment but new industries are not being set up and old industries are getting closed. The farmers have been silent on purchasing at MSP rates,” he alleged.
