People from an endangered tribe in Chhattisgarh are on the verge of starvation with one of them dying due to hunger, Congress alleged today seeking to expose the claims of the BJP government boasting one of the best PDS systems.
State PCC Chief Bhupesh Baghel said that Lamburam, a member of the highly protected tribe of Pahadi Korwa, died as he could not get food for four days at a Primary Health Centre in Sanna in Jashpur district. Lamburam had taken his wife Sukhni to the Centre for treatment of an eye ailment.
