PANJIM: Aam Admi Party (AAP) has linked the formalin controversy with the rumours of Congress MLAs joining the BJP alleging that attempts are being made to suppress the truth.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, AAP convenor Elvis Gomes said the FDA director was not only leading herself into an unwarranted situation but is also taking her departmental staff onto a path from which it would be difficult to extricate them. He charged that the department as well as the government is still not coming clean on the formalin issue.
AAP urged people to unseat the government as well the opposition party as both had become incapacitated with the weight of the kickbacks received from formalin in fish lobby.
AAP general secretary Pradeep Padgaonkar said that MLAs who don’t care for the health of the people should be banished forever as the act of using formalin was unpardonable. “How can we allow greed of money to freely allow poisoning of our own people? Imagine the effect of formalin on children’s health,” he said.
