Janasena Chief Pawan Kalyan visited the families of Diarrhoea victims. He has already stated that he would be in Guntur until March 18th. Pawan visited diarrhoea patients in the GGH (Guntur Government Hospital) and demanded that the government should immediately grant ex-gratia.
Talking to the media, Pawan Kalyan said, ‘In Guntur, almost everything is adulterated and contaminated. The same is the case with drinking water too. It is the minimum responsibility of the government to supply clean and safe drinking water. If the govt. fails to even supply safe and clean drinking water, how will the government develop Andhra Pradesh?
The government punish the public representatives and officials who are responsible for this.
If the higher officials take bribes, how can they question their subordinates? On behalf of the people, Janasena Party demands the government to declare ‘Medical Emergency’ in Guntur. The government should announce ex-gratia for the families of the deceased.
At the same time, the government should send a senior IAS-level official to Guntur until the whole thing is sorted out. I did not find any cooperators here. It is unclear whether the local authorities don’t have enough resources, or the willingness to work.
The State government should come up with a permanent solution for the problem’.
