New Delhi: The Delhi unit of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has slammed Arvind Kejriwal government for mishandling the coronavirus infected dead bodies, and said the government must handover the dead bodies with proper precaution and care. If it is not possible then, Kejriwal should handover the responsibility to any Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO) for the cremation of the dead body.
Speaking to ETV Bharat here, Delhi BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor said that it is the prime duty of government to hand over the dead bodies to the concerned family members.
"It has come to the notice that several dead bodies went missing from the hospitals. It is the right of the family to get the dead bodies of their loved ones. The condition clearly indicates the failure of the government", added BJP Spokesperson.
