Opposition leaders, led by Congress President Sonia Gandhi, on Wednesday shot off a joint letter of a 9-point charter of demands to Prime Minister Modi to implement on a war footing, âwithout going into all acts of commission and oÂmÂission by the Central Government that have brought the country to such a tragic passâ.
Noting the Covid-19 pandemic in India has assumed unprecedented dimensions of a human catastrophe, they referred to measures they sought independently and jointly as âabsolute imperativeâ, that were either ignored or refused by the government. âThough it has not been the practice of your office or government, we would appreciate a response to our suggestions in the interests of India and our people,â said the joint letter.
