Systems have not failed, India crippled by political leadership, says Sonia

Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Friday said the Covid-ravaged nation was sinking under the weight of the Narendra Modi government’s indifference and incompetence, asserting in no uncertain terms that “India is crippled by a political leadership today that has no empathy for the people”. Interacting with Congress members of Parliament through videoconferencing, Sonia insisted that the excuse attributing the Covid surge to the failure of the “system” was nothing but abdication of responsibility as the government had not only ignored advance warnings of a second wave but paid little attention to specific suggestions on tackling the crisis given by experienced people like former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

Probe coronavirus, not Bengal post-poll violence: Congress

The Congress on Thursday said central committees should be deployed to investigate the mismanagement of the Covid crisis with over 4 lakh daily cases and close to 4,000 deaths, not to probe stray incidents of post-poll violence in Bengal. Responding to the Narendra Modi government’s decision to send a four-member home ministry team to Bengal to examine the bloodshed after the elections in which Trinamul comprehensively defeated the BJP, Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate said: “Does the Centre not have faith in the police and the judiciary of Bengal, and the elected government there? A probe is needed into the reasons for such a large number of deaths caused by the coronavirus everyday; into why 4 lakh new cases are coming up daily. Who ignored the specific alerts? Who was supposed to prepare for the second wave?”
