PRIYANKA CHARGES UP GOVT WITH FAILURE ON COVID FRONT

Congress general secretary and the party’s UP in-charge Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Tuesday charged the Uttar Pradesh government with failing on Covid testing, treatment, tracking and vaccination — the four “pillars” for tackling Covid. In a letter to chief minister Yogi Adityanath, she said: “Don’t abandon people to battle Covid on their own in this war for humanity. You are accountable to them.” “Future generations will not forgive you if you do not put in all resources with absolute willpower in this time of crisis,” she said in the twopage letter which she also tweeted.
