बस्ती में बन रहे नेशनल हाईवे के फ्लाईओवर गिरने से हताहत लोगों को सरकार तुरंत राहत पहुँचाए. इस ‘ना-काम सरकार’ में कोई काम नहीं हो रहा है और जो एकआध हो भी रहा है, तो उसकी ये दुर्दशा है. अब तो सरकार को अपने कामों की कमी व भ्रष्टाचार की जाँच के लिए कोई स्थायी आयोग ही बना देना चाहिए. pic.twitter.com/hX6fPQV2bD
