Cong protects black-marketing: MP Minister

Bhopal, Sep 14 (UNI) Madhya Pradesh Food, Civil Supplies and Consumer Protection Minister Akhand Pratap Singh Yadav today fired a broadside at the main opposition Congress by alleging that the party was vexed about a campaign against black-marketing of foodgrain and kerosene.

''The Congress and their supporters had captured foodgrain and kerosene distribution for years. That party protects black-marketing,'' he said in a statement issued here.

The Minister pointed out that instructions for preventing black-marketing were issued to collectors, inspectors-general and police superintendents.
