Chennai: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today said the crisis in the country is not just due to Covid-19 but due to the ‘anti-people’ policies of the Central government and called for a solution instead of hollow speeches.
“I am quarantined at home and sad news is constantly coming in. The crisis in India is not just due to Corona, but due to the anti-people policies of the central government. Don’t give false celebrations and hollow speeches, give the country a solution,” he tweeted in Hindi.
Rahul tested positive for coronavirus earlier this week with mild symptoms and has been quarantined at home.
On Tuesday night, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a televised address, assured the nation about the availability of medical oxygen, hospital beds and vaccines amid an alarming surge in Covid infections. As restrictions return to many parts of the country, the Prime Minister also said ‘lockdown should be the last resort’.
