“I am in Dhahar, today not for politic’s sake or to spread propaganda but to serve the people and distribute food rations from the National Disaster Preparedness and Food Reserve Agency to 500 families who are less than 2% of the people in need. We shall distribute the food ration in an equal and fair manner,” he said.
