AGARTALA, Nov 7 (TIWN): Tripura Finance Minister Bhanulal Saha on Tuesday told press that the funds under flood or MGNREGA, whatever has been sanctioned these are okay for now, but state needs more funds.

'We have been appealed for the funds. Hopefully Centre will response, including MGNREGA', added Bhanulal Saha. 

'Poor people are under loss, including farmers due to flood and now for all these, we need fund', said Saha.

Noteworthy, Tripura Govt has sent a report with Rs. 80 crores of losses on in Agriculture in Tripura. The report was made within less than 24 hours of the rain.

Addressing a press meet at Secretariat, PWD Minister Badal Chowdhury said, “Due to the depression at Bay of Bengal a constant rain has hit the state led massive floods across the state from Oct 19 to Oct 22. Total 139 flood relief camps were opened and 5893 families have taken shelter in those camps. Medicines, foods everything are provided in sufficient manner".But surprising matter is that when the Minister is claiming about full care to the flood victims on the other side the flood victims are alleging about total negligence of the Govt.
