Uttar Pradesh Congress President Ajay Kumar Lallu said that preparations for rescue from rain and floods in the state are half incomplete, due to which there is a possibility of major damage.

Lallu said on Sunday that in view of the possibility of heavy rains along with the Corona epidemic, conditions of heavy destruction can arise due to floods, thousands of acres of agricultural land have been submerged in the areas of Purvanchal due to the rains so far. The government has not announced any relief for the farmers, nor has any preparation of the state government come to the fore so far, which can cause major losses in many districts of the state.

He has demanded from the state government that preparations are needed before the flood comes as a disaster, but the government is still sitting blindly, it is only in the policy of misuse of government machinery for election preparations and in telling its false image from public money to be public welfare. Is adjacent to.

State Congress President said that districts like Ambedkar Nagar, Ayodhya, Balrampur, Barabanki, Bahraich, Basti, Gonda, Lakhimpur Kheri, Gorakhpur, Kushinagar, Sant Kabir Nagar, Siddharthnagar, Mau, Azamgarh, and Ballia are affected by floods every year. Due to heavy rains, the effect of floods in Terai and Purvanchal districts is more dangerous and affects the rural areas.

With NDRF, SDRF, more flood shelters should be built with more arrangement of boats than last year as meteorologists believe that this year will be more floods.

He said that the destruction is more in the rural areas of Ghaghra, Gandak, Saryu, Sharda and the banks of the Ganges. From Terai to Purvanchal the conditions are dire.
