RANCHI: Jharkhand Mukti Morcha on Friday demanded a nationwide audit by the Centre of all the deaths which occurred due to Covid-19 since the outbreak of the pandemic last year.
Speaking to reporters at the party’s headquarters in Bariatu on Friday, JMM general secretary Supriyo Bhattacharya criticised the BJP’s MPs in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha for not challenging the Centre’s recent statement in Parliament where it claimed that no one in the country died due to shortage of oxygen.
The JMM’s response came a day after BJP’s Jharkhand president Deepak Prakash demanded that the incumbent state government led by chief minister Hemant Soren must make public the number of deaths which occurred in the state due to the shortage of oxygen during the second wave of the pandemic between April and June this year.
