Speaking to the reporters here, Ramanath said, ” A special package must be announced by the government to the poor as they are already suffering due to financial instability. Amid statewide lockdown, Kerala has announced packages for the public. Also, ‘Ganji Centre’ must be opened in all the gram panchayats. A canteen must be opened on the premises of Wenlock Hospital and arrangements must be made for the family members of Covid patients to stay in the hospital”

“People are suffering because the state is being run by thieves. If Siddaramaiah would have been in power, the situation would not be this bad. It is important to have a ‘Janta ki Baat’, instead of ‘Mann Ki Baat’ Congress workers are distributing food kits to the poor and have also launched a Covid-19 ambulance and oxygen service,” he added
