In a tweet in Hindi on Saturday, Gandhi appealed to the Centre to focus on vaccines, oxygen and other health services instead of 'spending on PR and unnecessary projects'.

  • सद्भाव से केंद्र सरकार से अपील है कि PR व अनावश्यक प्रॉजेक्ट पर खर्च करने की बजाए वैक्सीन, ऑक्सीजन व अन्य स्वास्थ्य सेवाओं पर ध्यान दें।

    आने वाले दिनों में ये संकट और भी गहरायेगा। इससे निबटने के लिए देश को तैयार करना होगा।

    वर्तमान दुर्दशा असहनीय है!
