New Delhi: Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi late Thursday night met several patients and their families camping on the roads, footpaths and subways around the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in Delhi. Hearing their agonies and complaints, Rahul accused the centre and Delhi government of being insensitive towards them.
Sharing the photos on Instagram Rahul Gandhi wrote, "The burden of disease, biting cold, and government insensitivity weigh heavily on patients and their families. Today, I met individuals outside AIIMS who have travelled from far and wide in search of treatment. On their journey, they are forced to sleep on the roads, footpaths, and in subways, all while clinging to a flicker of hope despite the cold, hunger, and various hardships. Both the Central Government and the Delhi Government have completely failed in their responsibility to the public."
Meanwhile, Congress has announced the names of candidates contesting in all the 70 seats for the upcoming Delhi Assembly elections. The party released its sixth and final list of candidates on Thursday. Lokendra Chaudhary from Timarpur and Sureshvati Chauhan from Rohtas Nagar were included in the list.
