UP BJP MLAs help in relief work, some in isolation

Lucknow, March 30 (SocialNews.XYZ) BJP legislators are now involving themselves in providing relief to the common people during the ongoing Covid-19 crisis and the ensuing nationwide lockdown.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and BJP General Secretary Sunil Bansal have asked all party legislators and workers to extend all possible help to the people during the lockdown.

 

UP minister Brijesh Pathak has turned his residential phone number into a helpline and has asked people to contact him if they require any help for food. He claims that his control room works round the clock for people who are in need.

Banda BJP MLA Prakash Dwiwedi said that he has provided food to at least 5,000 workers, labourers and homeless people.

He has also set up a control room to facilitate relief work, which includes home delivery of food packets.

Dwiwedi claimed in a press release that he is also providing food to monkeys.

"I have sent two quintals of gram and two quintals of wheat to a local saint along with Rs 50,000. I am doing my bit in this crisis," he said.

BJP General Secretary Bansal on Monday asked all party workers to provide food to at least five to 10 families every day at the booth level and send a report to the party headquarters.

Every party worker has also been asked to contribute a minimum of Rs 100 each into the PM-CARES fund.

Majority of the legislators in UP have already announced contribution form their MLA funds for fighting the Covid-19 crisis.

However, some of them are clearly hesitant to go out among the people and supervise the relief work.

These MLAs are posting their videos on the social media in which they can be seen doing yoga, playing with their children, watching television and exercising within the confines of their homes.

Naraini BJP MLA, Raj Karan Kabir, has isolated himself in his farmhouse and has stopped taking calls.

Tindwari BJP MLA Brijesh Prajapati announced on his Facebook page that as per the Prime Minister's directive, he is observing lockdown and is helping in household chores that include making tea in the kitchen.
