Kanpur: Union Minister Sriprakash Jaiswal yesterday demanded that the Food Security Act be implemented in Uttar Pradesh, saying that the people of the state had been left out from getting benefits of the central scheme.
Jaiswal today participated in a protest by Congress workers here against the Samajwadi Party government's alleged failure to implement the act.
“The UPA government has brought the Food Security Act for the benefit of the people. But, unfortunately, the benefits are not reaching everyone in the country due to the failure of implementing the act in certain states.
