“I was a bit disturbed today after meeting various delegations who feel dejected and disappointed by poor governance. They face hardships in this winter due to prolonged power cuts,” he said.
Azad said that curtailing subsidised ration to people when the unemployment is highest ever in the UT is unfortunate and instead the government should have increased the quantity to offer some relief to the people.
