Since he has not yet received a government house, the panchayat president of a district in Madhya Pradesh has been residing in a tent for the last three months. Rudesh Paraste of the Dindori district informed the news agency ANI that he is learning about the issues facing the locals while residing in the tent.
Three months have passed but the government and the administration has not alloted a government Bungalow to me. Despite Dindori district being declared as Naxal affected area, a PSO was provided by the Superintendent of Police that was later withdrawn after the intervention of BJP leaders,” he said.
Paraste further stated that the public of Dindori used to visit him in large numbers. “As it takes time to resolve their problems, we also have to arrange food and lodging for them here. We are facing many issues but will manage to serve the public,” he said.
In order to wait for the administration to give him a government house, the newly elected district panchayat president stated that he will continue to live in the tent.
The bungalow, according to Paraste, is now owned by the current members of the district panchayat as well as the former president. She has been living in the bungalow for the last 17 years but her attachment with that bungalow is not going away,” he said.
