"content": "Look at a parameter like water, which is not there. About 80 per cent of this country is arid and semi-arid land. The most limiting factor in terms of livelihood and in terms of development of everything is water. What the ASAL people would have seriously requested for a high percentage to be given to water. Leave alone giving it a high percentage, it is not there in the formula. So, the whole thing is very unfortunate. It has taken one-and-half years to reach this stage. The counties are starving and they need money. Unfortunately, we cannot take a lot more time to continue starving them. However, we need to look at these formulas very critically in the future. We need to look at what is good for this country. It is not just for some few people who want to become governors in the coming general election in 2022, so that they can have a lot of money around them. That is not important. What is important is what is good for our people."
