1.25 lakh people were cremated in Madhya Pradesh between March-April, last year, claims Kamal Nath

Bhopal: Attacking the Centre over the WHO's estimation that India had 4.7 million (47 lakh) COVID-19-related deaths, Congress leader and former Chief Minister Kamal Nath reiterated that in the month of March-April last year, more than 1.25 lakh people were cremated.

  • अब तो WHO भी कह रहा है कि भारत में कोविड से सबसे ज़्यादा मौतें हुई है और सरकारी आँकड़े से 10 गुना ज़्यादा मौतें हुई है और मौतों का आँकड़ा 47 लाख से भी ज़्यादा है।

    इसी से समझा जा सकता है कि भाजपा सरकार किस प्रकार झूठ परोसती रही , झूठे आँकड़े परोसती रही।

"I have been saying from the very beginning that lakhs of people have died in the country because of Corona, while the BJP government instead of saving lives and accepting the truth, kept on suppressing the figures," said Kamal Nath

  • मैंने मध्यप्रदेश को लेकर भी कहा कि यहाँ भी शिवराज सरकार के कुप्रबंधन के कारण मार्च और अप्रैल के महीने में श्मशान और कब्रिस्तानों में 1,27503 लोगों के अंतिम संस्कार हुये , इसमें से अगर 80 फीसदी भी कोरोना से मौतें हुईं हैं तो वो तादाद 1,02000 होती है।

Kamal Nath added, "Earlier, I had said that because of the mismanagement of Shivraj government in Madhya Pradesh 1,27,503 people were cremated in crematoriums and cemeteries in the month of March and April, out of which 80 percent died due to Corona. If so, the number of deaths because of Covid should be one lakh, twenty-seven thousand plus. At that time government filed complaints against me, calling me a liar. While we have seen people dying in agony due to a lack of treatment, beds, oxygen, life-saving medicines and injections."

  • पिछले 24 घंटों में प्रदेश में #Corona संक्रमण के 34 नए केस आए हैं, वहीं 37 मरीज ठीक हुए हैं। वर्तमान में प्रदेश में कुल एक्टिव केस 210, संक्रमण दर 0.42% और रिकवरी रेट 98.70% है।#CoronavirusUpdates pic.twitter.com/MQ3gpVe6IM

Reacting to Kamal Nath's claim MP Home Minister Narottam Mishra said, "He is accepting WHO's claim but not of India, This is the speciality of Congress. How to frame "Great India" as "Defame India". "

In the government records the number of death because of Covid is only 10,735 which is far less than Kamal Nath's claims.
