Speaking to the reporters, DKS said, ” Saving lives of the people is our priority. Developmental works can be done later. We have decided to use the development funds for the direct procurement of vaccines. This is not a programme sponsored by Congress. Government had asked to use 25 percent of the Rs 2 Cr development fund and we have made a Rs 100 Cr plan and seeking permission from the government”

“We have a total of 93 MLAs and council members. We are even ready to beg our party workers for the rest of the money. Let government approve the project and we will join hands with  the government,” he added
