Gadkari blames Mah govt for malnutrition deaths

Mumbai, Sep 21 (UNI) Maharashtra BJP President Nitin Gadkari today blamed the Congress-NCP government in the state for the death of 7,700 children in last one year due to malnutrition.

It was unfortunate that the High Court had passed the stricutres on state government on this issue Mr Gadkari said in a release issued here.

He said it would not be proper to hold only officers for this incident but even the ministers should be held responsible and action should be taken against them.

Mr Gadkari said the medical facility is still not available in rural areas even today and stressed the need to take firm steps to solve this problem.
