Chandigarh, May 17
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) SC wing president Lal Chand Kataruchakk has demanded from Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh to provide financial assistance of Rs 10,000 to poor families living in villages and cities and Rs 600 to MGNREGA workers.
He said the Captain government should immediately implement the announced pension of Rs 2,500 for old age, widows, disabled and dependent children as per its election promise. In a memorandum sent to the Chief Minister through the Deputy Commissioner on Monday, Kataruchakk said due to lax health arrangements of the Punjab Government and the inability to get expensive treatment in private hospitals, the common man, especially the poor, was being pushed to the brink of death. — TNS
