MIM president Asaduddin Owaisi criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for issuing fiats without providing support.
Mr.Owaisi in a series of tweets said Mr.Modi had again ignored the plight of the vast majority of Indians who have been thrown into a state of hunger, homelessness and inconceivable desperation due to the lockdown.
The Prime Minister has left them to charity and goodwill of the rich, he said. Lockdown without thinking about the hungry and deprived is cruelty
of the highest form.
He said Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao had been demanding that states need relaxation of financial norms, fiscal relief and immediate aid. How long will the Union government issue farmaans without providing support to states? How long will it say that states have the responsibility to feed hungry while not even releasing excess stock from FCI? If states are responsible then what will the Union do? Issue more guidelines?
