Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath criticized the previous government during a recent relief material distribution program for flood-affected families in Chitrakoot. He alleged that the earlier administration did not take notice of floods and victims were only given dry bread as relief, while funds were misused by Samajwadi Party goons.
