KALAHANDI:During the crucial period of fighting against Covid-19 Govt has declared several facilities to the poor people. But it is seen something others in the Bhairinguda Gram Panchayat under Junagarh Block which is 3 k.m. far from the Block headquarter.

After the first fase of lockdown is over the poor and needy people are not getting free food since 14th April to which the Sarapanch agreed with his statement to media that no as no specific direction is received the fooding is stopped. After the media intervention the BSSO of Junagarh Block Mr. Tusar Ranjan Sahu has directed to start free fooding to the 20 poor needy people henceforth. After that the distribution of thousand rupees to each ration card beneficiaries and 1500 to the registered labourers started then and there.

The 50 bedded temporary Covid-19 health center  has been established at the Govt. operated well equipped Tribal Hostel at Kuruguda for Bhairinguda GP. While 20 beded temporary Covid-19 health center  has been established at the Chingudisar Primary School for the Chingudisar GP where three urinal is repaired as latrin using low standard roof tin with wooden bars and low standard bed roll with bedsheet & pillow on the bed collected from the sevashram. The rest 30 bed is arranged like that at Murlapadar Primary school as stated by the nodal officer mr. S.K Sahu. It is only to manage the expenditure of 5 lakh rupees and the intellectuals demand for its proper utilization.

Many people like  Sarita Bag w/o- Bablu Bag  is residing under a broken roof while  Sita Patra and Sunafula Naik have complains that no such govt facilities are given to them rather they are not getting any pension and any house as per govt provision.
