"I met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and requested him for financial help for disaster relief. He said your chief minister had also met me and will do whatever is possible. I was hoping that announcement would come but was disappointed," Ms Singh claimed.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not help during Himachal Pradesh's worst monsoon disaster but Union minister Nitin Gadkari resolved most of the issues related to the national highways in the state, claimed state Congress chief Pratibha Singh today.
"Himachal faced the worst ever natural disaster during the monsoons but no special financial assistance was given by the Centre. The state government gave Rs 4500-crore package on its own to provide succour to the affected people. This issue would be raised during the elections," she claimed.
"I met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and requested him for financial help for disaster relief. He said your chief minister had also met me and will do whatever is possible. I was hoping that announcement would come but was disappointed," Ms Singh, the sitting MP from Mandi Lok Sabha seat, told Press Trust of India.
