<h1>Minister urges all legislators to press centre to revise SDRF norms and grant relief for flood-affected residents</h1> A state minister urged all 117 legislators to jointly press the central government to revise State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) norms and grant a comprehensive relief package for flood-affected residents, noting a prior request to the prime minister remains unanswered. The speech raised legal and administrative issues: purported SDRF accounting discrepancies, notional interest claims, historical CAG/RBI findings on state finances, alleged failures to notify rivers/choes under the Northern Canal and Drainage Act, inter-state disputes over de-silting cost-sharing, and contention over central control of dam releases and riparian rights. Opposition and ministers exchanged allegations of mismanagement and misleading claims.
