Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi held a press conference today (Friday) about the situation of Coronavirus Pandemic in the country. He said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is responsible for the second wave of Corona. The PM could not understand the second wave. During the conversation with journalists, Rahul described PM Modi as the event manager.he also said that so far only three percent of the country’s population has received covid vaccine.
On the question related to the vaccine of NDTV correspondent, Rahul Gandhi said, ‘We are the vaccine capital of the world. The vaccine will provide permanent solution. From where you can take the vaccine, take as much as you can, and apply the vaccine. Government should not make excuses. Leadership does not mean that if I am not able to work, then it is his fault,thier fault.
Leadership means showing my own strength that I will. Do not waste time. Listen to those who are trying to help you, who are telling you the truth, whether they are the people of the opposition, whether they are chief ministers of different states, district magistrates. When you say that we have defeated the second wave, the third wave will come.
‘The public is troubled by vaccines and inflation, the priority of the center is social media, false image’: Rahul Gandhi’
On the question of writing covid as Mowid, he said, ‘The talk of the toolkit is a lie. When I wrote Mowid, I meant that if I had paid attention to covid, it would have been covid, but they helped covid to spread, so I used the first letter of his name. When Modi ji was holding a rally in Bengal, he was helping covid. When we had to take steps, they were not taking it. This helped covid in this way.
Rahul said, ‘It needs to be understood that we are fighting a battle with Corona. It changes its form. Social distancing, sanitization, mask, lockdown temporarily stop the virus but it is not a permanent solution. Vaccination is the permanent solution to defeat this virus. We can defeat this epidemic by doing as much vaccination as possible. We need to learn from how the virus has spread in countries around the world and how it is being fought.
Rahul said, ‘When I was warning the government about this, people said that Rahul Gandhi is scaring the people of the country but I was not scaring people, expressing their concern.’ On the question related to the official figures of deaths from Corona, he said, ‘I am saying with the claim that the government’s figures are false. I spoke to our Chief Ministers and said that you keep the right figures in front of the public. Only correct figures of corona will help us defeat this disease.
Rahul Gandhi said in the government vs social media case, ‘The government wants pressure on Twitter. The RSS wants to suppress the information. Such a position will not help control the corona.
