New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has suggested that the government should isolate virus hotspots and allow business to reopen in other areas.
Rahul Gandhi also criticized central government on shortage testing kits. He took Modi government responsible for the poor performance against Covid 19. In a tweet, Rahul said that India is one of the least testing countries in the world.
He slammed the government for the blanket lockdown as the poor have suffered. In a tweet on Monday, he said, “The one-size-fit-all lockdown has brought untold misery and suffereing to millions of farmers, migrant labourers, daily wagers and business owners.”
After the PM’s announcement of the extension of nationawide lockdown, the Congress has questioned the government strategy to help the poor. It has also asked the centre to spell out the strategy with regards to testing people for coronavirus.
The Congress chief Sonia Gandhi said on Monday, “Ten kg grain per person may be provided free for six months to those who may be facing food insecurity but not having ration cards. I would like to bring to your notice that all migrant labourers may not be holding NFSA cards. In addition, many deserving people have been excluded from the NFSA lists.”
