Save your own life because the PM is busy with peacocks: Rahul Gandhi

New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday slammed the Centre saying that the Prime Minister “is busy with peacocks”.

He also said that he implementation of an “unplanned lockdown” is the product of ego of a man resulting in COVID-19 spreading across the country, said Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday.

“The coronavirus cases in the country will cross the 50-lakh cases mark this week and there would be 10 lakh active cases. The implementation of an unplanned lockdown is a product of a person’s ego causing the coronavirus to spread across the country,” tweeted the Congress leader.

“The Modi government has asked people to be “atmanirbhar” (self-reliant) i.e. you yourself save your own life because the PM is busy with peacocks,” he tweeted (translated from Hindi).

कोरोना संक्रमण के आँकड़े इस हफ़्ते 50 लाख और ऐक्टिव केस 10 लाख पार हो जाएँगे।

अनियोजित लॉकडाउन एक व्यक्ति के अहंकार की देन है जिससे कोरोना देशभर में फैल गया।

मोदी सरकार ने कहा आत्मनिर्भर बनिए यानि अपनी जान ख़ुद ही बचा लीजिए क्योंकि PM मोर के साथ व्यस्त हैं।
