Priyanka Gandhi

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi on Saturday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his Covid handling, alleging that Indians do not come first for the PM, politics does and that truth does not concern him but propaganda does.

Taking to the social media, she said PM Modi simply retreated and waited for the worst to pass. He has behaved like a coward and has let the country down. She also claimed that the prime minister’s vast capacity for vanity has been exposed and the whole world has witnessed the prime minister’s incompetence at governance during the pandemic.

Gandhi launched a series of attacks against the government over its Covid second wave handling and her harsh criticism of PM Modi was a part of her Zimmedaar Kaun? campaign where she said that during the crisis PM Modi’s incompetence at governance was on display.

In her statement, Gandhi alleged that the time has come for the people to ask the prime minister ‘Zimmedaar Kaun

Gandhi also said that PM Modi concentrated on building image when he decided to export vaccines to other countries and did not bother to think about his own countrymen. She also said that the vaccine registration platform is convoluted and designed to slow down the vaccination process in her statement.

Hitting out at the Centre’s poor vaccination strategy, she said the government exported millions of doses of life-saving drugs without ensuring provisions for Indian lives first. Instead of distributing free vaccines across the world to boost his own image, had he paused for a moment and protected his countrymen first, the people would not be standing in line today grappling with a convoluted registration system designed to slow down the vaccine process, she said.

She also slammed PM Modi for not taking opponents along in this battle for Indian lives, saying he could have engaged with experts, critics, allies and the opposition fearlessly. She said he could have used the media as a disseminator of life-saving information about Covid, rather than as a propaganda tool to promote his own image.

Priyanka Gandhi also listed a series of measures that the prime minister should have taken in the wake of Covid spread.

Priyanka Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi along with other senior leaders, including former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, have been very critical of the government’s Covid handling, especially when cases and deaths rose during the second wave.

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi was addressing a rally in Assam’s Dhubri on Wednesday where she said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi did not stop JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna from leaving India. She said PM Modi is far away from the reality of common people and has no understanding of their miseries as he has become egoistic.

This was not the first time that Priyanka Gandhi attacked PM Modi over the sex scandal. Earlier this week, she questioned PM Modi’s silence over the matter. Gandhi said Prajwal Revanna who stood along with PM Modi, for whom the prime minister asked for votes, has been accused of abusing thousands of women.  She added the numbers are staggering and asked Modi’s response over the matter. Gandhi said she was keen to hear what the Union home minister had to say on the matter.

Priyanka Gandhi recollected that a few days earlier she had travelled abroad to visit her daughter. She said the Prime Minister and Home Minister are constantly discussing her overseas trips. She said they are well aware about when she is going to travel and are even keeping track of opposition leaders’ travels. Yet, when an accused, someone like him Prajwal Revanna, leaves the country, they claim ignorance. How can anyone accept this? She said the matter has slipped away right under their noses after committing such a grave offence, and yet they remain silent.

The Congress leader also alleged there was a mafia raj in BJP-ruled Assam. She also attacked Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma. She said there have been very serious charges against Himanta Biswa Sarma when he was in the Congress party. As soon as he changed sides to BJP, all charges against him were dropped. Gandhi further added the BJP has developed a washing machine where corrupt people are put and the Assam CM was the first one in this regard.
