Often after major accidents, the messages of condolences on the social media of the Chief Minister and the Prime Minister immediately come, instructions are also given for immediate assistance. But only how and how many days this assistance reaches the victims, only the victim knows. There is a hurry to see the leaders helping the leaders, but there is no concern for the help soon.
Chief Minister Mohan Yadav photographed the families of the victims of the accident at Padal Phata in Khandwa district in MP, while the second day, Minister Vijay Shah handed over the envelope to the ICU to the injured. You will be surprised to know what was in these envelopes.
In fact, during the immersion of the Durga statue in a pond on the evening of 2 October near Pandhana in Khandwa district, there was a big accident due to the overturning of the tractor-trolley, in which 11 people lost their lives. Most of them were small girls and some young.
Soon after the incident, Chief Minister Mohan Yadav directed the families of the deceased to provide financial assistance of Rs 4-4 lakh. At the same time, Prime Minister Narendra Modi also expressed grief over the accident and announced a assistance of Rs 2-2 lakh to the families of the deceased and Rs 50,000 thousand to the injured.
Apart from this, the Chief Minister also announced a relief amount of one lakh rupees for the serious injured. In this way, the families of the deceased were to get a total of 6 lakh rupees and the injured were to get one and a half lakh rupees.
When Chief Minister Mohan Yadav reached Padal Phata and consoled the family members, he handed over the closed envelopes. Everyone felt that there would be checks of 4-4 lakh rupees declared in them. But when the family went home and opened the envelopes, they were surprised. The envelopes were not checks, but only the amount of SDM Pandhana had a acceptance letter.
It is surprising that the signed letter of a small officer was handed over to the Chief Minister. Now in a suppressed tongue, officials are saying that this envelope was given only to ‘photograph’.
Another incident occurred on Saturday morning when state minister Vijay Shah reached the ICU to meet the injured of Padal Phata at the district hospital of Khandwa. Along with meeting the injured, it can be understood to be offered to offer fruit or bouquet of flowers, but the minister reached with a check in a closed envelope and took a photo handing over it. The press note was also released. It felt that perhaps he would have come to give a check of Rs 1.5 lakh to the injured.
The government press note mentioned the assistance amount and envelope, but there was no information about the amount. When the injured opened the envelope, there was a check of only five thousand rupees in it, which was not part of any announcement.
Actually, Minister Vijay Shah went to Padal Pata yesterday, but he was deprived of coverage due to the Chief Minister being there. Therefore, it was pranked today. Government sources say that in the name of immediate assistance, these checks were built from the Khandwa branch of the Indian Red Cross Society. But there was a mess here too. 6 injured were admitted, but only 4 got checks, while Durga father Pyaarising and Lakshmi father Jetra were not given this check. It was told that this is for immediate assistance, so that they can spend their necessary expenses. Large amount will come directly into their accounts.
The question is that when everyone’s account numbers and details have been taken, then what is the meaning of getting photographed by giving a check or acceptance letter? The immediate amount of cash could also be given. Giving checks on Saturday, that too in ICU, while it is not possible to redeem it immediately after two days of bank shutdown, what does it mean?
