Raises issue of bridge cut off from Koraon's Barokhar,

Handia, Manpur to Prayagraj

Prayagraj, 18 Aug (HS): Prayagraj MP Ujjwal Raman Singh, taking

the BJP triple engine government to task, said that half the city was submerged

in a little rain, people's houses were flooded and all the government schemes

have failed. He said that thousands of crores of rupees of public's hard-earned

tax were wasted due to the shortsightedness of the Smart City Scheme officials,

what benefit did the public get from it, they are still drowning in a little

rain.

The MP said that drainage was not dug in the villages and

drains were not cleaned in the cities, as a result of which, from cities to

villages, everything is submerged in water. MP Ujjwal Raman Singh said that

Koraon Barokhar, Manpur, Hadiya area got cut off from Prayagraj because due to

the submergence of Bhogan bridge and Devghat bridge on Belan river, if the

residents there fall ill then they cannot come to Prayagraj, hence it is

necessary to build a big bridge on it.

MP claimed that the triple engine government has failed,

every scheme of its has failed on every front, be it Smart City, Janjeevan

Mission, Swachh Ganga Abhiyan, Swachhata Abhiyan, all the schemes have proved

to be just on paper. MP representative Vinay Kushwaha said that if the

government had emphasized on employment yatra and development yatra instead of

Tiranga Yatra and Kanwar Yatra, the situation of the country and the state

would have been different.
