Ramaswami: The support infrastructure that was required to look after the needs of the people who lost their jobs or are going hungry was not put in place. We have been demanding from the very beginning that a sum of Rs 7,500 monthly, for a period of three months, be transferred to all those who do not come in the income tax bracket. The 77 million tonnes of food grains currently stocked in central government godowns should be used to distribute free rations to all those who are going hungry.
