  • Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Saturday accused the Centre of denying assistance to landslides-affected people of Wayanad due to politics and asserted that there should be no discrimination in times of natural disasters.

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, a prominent Congress leader, criticized the central government for not providing a relief package to Wayanad, a district in Kerala, following severe flooding and landslides. She accused the government of playing politics with the lives of the people by not releasing funds for disaster relief, despite the region facing significant devastation. Priyanka highlighted that while the state government had declared the floods a disaster, the central government's inaction was evident, especially when compared to the relief efforts seen in other states. She emphasized the need for immediate financial assistance to help the affected families rebuild their lives, pointing out the disparity in treatment and the political motivations behind the central government's decisions.
