NEW DELHI, July 20: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Monday attacked the Yogi Adityanath Government in Uttar Pradesh over its handling of the COVID-19 crisis, saying the State Government’s press conferences that “play like a tape recorder” will not work anymore and attention will have to be paid to the prevailing situation.
The Congress general secretary has been criticising the State Government’s response to the COVID-19 crisis, alleging that it is indulging in propaganda, instead of dealing with the coronavirus pandemic. “There are reports that beds in government hospitals of the two major cities of UP — Lucknow and Gorakhpur — are full. Coronavirus cases are rising and this condition of hospitals is worrying,” Priyanka Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi. “The concerns that were raised before the government three months ago are turning out to be real. Now, the UP government’s press conferences that play like a tape recorder will not work. Attention will have to be paid to the prevailing situation,” she said. (PTI)
