 [IST]
Bhopal, Feb 22 (UNI) CPI(M) MLA Ramlakhan Sharma today announced to stage a walkout in the Madhya Pradesh Assembly alleging that relief work had not started in drought-affected areas but changed his decision at the instance of Speaker Ishwardas Rohani.

During the Question Hour, JD(U)'s Saroj Bachchan Nayak raised the issue of relief work not being started in drought-affected areas.

Mr Sharma alleged that relief work had not started in Rewa district and demanded that funds be released and work be started in the region.

Meanwhile, Mr Sharma declared that he will stage a walkout because his demand was not being met.

Mr Rohani requested Mr Sharma not to stage a walkout and directed the government to take necessary steps and start relief work in Rewa.

In this regard, state Power Minister Kailash Vijaywargiya said there was no dearth of funds for relief work and districts will be provided as much amount as required.
