MUNCHINGPUT (VISAKHAPATNAM DT.): Tribals mobbed Praja Rajyam president K. Chiranjeevi at anthrax-hit Barda village, in Laxmipuram panchayat, in this mandal, about 190 km from Visakhapatnam, on Wednesday.
Mr. Chiranjeevi expressed concern over the plight of tribals and blamed the ruling party for failing to educate them and provide medicare. “It’s unfortunate that tribals are dying like flies due to malaria, viral fever and other infections,” he bemoaned.
Mr. Chiranjeevi, who was scheduled to fly back to Hyderabad, could not go due to inclement weather. Heavy rain lashed the agency belt making it difficult to fly. Tribal women applied turmeric on his forehead and offered garlands.
Earlier, he visited Lobburu primary health centre and interacted with medical officer G. Janardhanam.
