The point of this statement is to make the reader understand that the author has tried to approach the Ministry of Parliament regarding an issue in a wide variety of ways. Through the formal channel (by petitioning), more aggressive ways (by remonstrating), eagerly (by supplicating), and surrendering to them (by prostrating themselves). However, he has not received the desired feedback from them. There is a possibility that the author has not received any feedback at all.
