Sanjay Raut Questions Centre for Rising Covid 19 cases in Maharashtra, Punjab, and Chattisgarh
Raut said that Maharashtra had followed all instructions issued by the Center and the
The latter must act sensitively and cautiously and stop blaming states.
Ten states, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Chhattisgarh, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Rajasthan have shown a sharp increase in daily COVID-19 cases, accounting for 83.02% of new infections, according to Union Health Ministry said Monday.
“If Maharashtra and the other two states (Punjab and Chhattisgarh) have failed, the first failure is that of the Center, as the country is waging the war against the virus under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” he said.
He also questioned why only states not ruled by the BJP were being flagged as failures. “Has the coronavirus disappeared in states that have a BJP prime minister? The Center should provide vaccines and Remdesivir to Maharashtra. Everyone has seen how Remdesivir
is available at the BJP offices in Gujarat but is not (done)
available for Maharashtra, “said Raut.
