Congress targets Dhami government on Kothiyal’s comment on Dharali disaster – myuttarakhandnews.com | Uttarakhand News in English | Dehradun News Today| News Uttarakhand | Uttarakhand latest news

PIONEER EDGE NEWS SERVICE/ Dehradun  The comment made by BJP leader and president of Ex-servicemen Welfare Council, colonel ( retd) Ajay Kothiyal that 147 bodies are still trapped inside the debris in Dharali (Uttarkashi) after the disaster of August 5, has given an opportunity to opposition Congress to attack the BJP government of the State. The party has demanded that the governor of the State and the Union government should take cognisance of the fact and take necessary action. Launching an attack on the Pushkar Singh Dhami government, the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Ganesh Godiyal said that the admission made by Kothiyal, who has very good experience of working in areas affected by natural disasters such as Kedarnath disaster of 2013, shows the callousness and insensitivity of the State government.  He said that Kothiyal has exposed the status of the disaster relief operations in Dharali. The PCC president said that the State administration has reconstructed the road above the debris which is a very inhuman and criminal offence. He added that the Congress high command removed the then chief minister of Uttarakhand in 2013 for not discharging his duties properly after the Kedarnath disaster of 2013. Godiyal said that the central leadership of BJP should take cognisance of the situation. The Congress president said that he along with a delegation of Congress leaders will visit Dharali on December 4 and will meet the affected people there. He said that the delegation will prepare a comprehensive report and submit it to the governor of the State. The PCC president added that the Congress party is standing shoulder to shoulder with the affected families.  The spokesperson of Uttarakhand Congress Pratima Singh said that despite many difficulties, the then PCC president Karan Mahara had visited Dharali after the disaster in August and shared the pain of the affected families. She said that now the PCC president Ganesh Godiyal will visit Dharali and will try to shake the State government out of its slumber.
