"It's not proper for Chief Secretary S K Choudhary and Principal Secretary D K Tiwari watching the games when they are supposed to monitor the drought-like situation round-the-clock and prepare plans to face it," said Mahato, whose party is an ally in the Arjun Munda-led government.
He justified Mahto's visit since he was the sports minister and because there were some players representing Jharkhand.
Union Tourism Minister Subodh Kant Sahay had yesterday termed as 'unfortunate' the team going to London when Jharkhand was staring at a drought and other states were dealing with the situation.
