THRISSUR: The government who is responsible to ensure the rights of public to travel freely seem to be absconding from such issues, said state president of
Mahila Congress
,
Bindu Krishna
after inaugurating the protest march at
Paliyekkara
toll plaza. "The recent incident of blocking the parallel road at Paliyekkara toll plaza is an indication of this," she said.
She also criticized the BJP supporters who fought against the toll only till they came into power at the Centre.
"How can the education minister manage the department, if he could not address the issues of common man in his own constituency," asked Bindu
Krishna adding that
LDF
government had been rewarded by the toll plaza company.
She urged the Mahila Congress activists to stand firm against such moves affecting the rights of the common man.
"Despite the removal of the blockade in the parallel road by the public themselves, the toll plaza company fixed it back with the support of the government," she added.
