Hitting out at the Modi government in a sarcastic tweet, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said the Centre’s “well planned fight” against Covid-19 has put India in an “abyss” of GDP reduction, job losses and highest daily cases of coronavirus.
“Modi Govt’s ‘well-planned fight’ against Covid has put India in an abyss of: 1. Historic GDP reduction of 24% 2. 12 crore jobs lost 3. 15.5 lac crores additional stressed loans 4. Globally highest daily Covid cases & deaths,” Rahul Gandhi said in a tweet.
But for the government of India and the media “sab changa si (all is well)”, the Congress leader added.
