Bengaluru, April 21 : Former Karnataka Chief Minister and leader of the opposition Siddaramaiah on Wednesday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has conveniently transferred the burden on States.
In a tweet, he said the PM’s speech was totally disappointing. States are devastated due to Covid-19. They need support from the Centre and not empty advice.
“We expected the Prime Minister to announce relief measures & compensation in case lockdown is announced by the States.
He said patients are dying due to lack of oxygen, ICU beds, life-saving drugs & other Covid essentials. But the Prime Minister is only giving advice to people without providing solutions to the problem.(UNI)
