Congress MP from Wayanad, former party chief Rahul Gandhi has launched a fresh attack on Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi on Friday over the vaccinations in the country.
In a letter to Prime Minister Modi, Rahul Gandhi found fault with vaccine experts and asked is it right to put Indians at risk by exporting vaccines to foreign nations, when Indian states are facing a shortage of vaccines.
Calling the vaccine shortage a serious issue, the Congress MP urged Narendra Modi to halt vaccine export and focus on supplying vaccine doses for the states in the country. There should be no bias in vaccine supply, he said.
Rahul Gandhi’s attack on PM Modi came days after a few states complained of a vaccine shortage due to which, Maharashtra has shut several vaccination centers due to lack of vaccine supply from the centre.
“At our current vaccination rate, it will take years to inoculate 75 per cent of the population. This will have catastrophic effects and will gravely decelerate India’s economy,” the Congress leader said.
In a tweet made in Hindi, Rahul Gandhi termed vaccine shortage a serious issue and not a celebration. It is right to export vaccines by putting Indians at risk? The Centre should lend a helping hand to the states to fight the pandemic together, he added.
The Gandhi scion even found fault with the Centre for blaming the states for vaccine wastage when the states are demanding the Union Government to sen vaccine doses in large numbers.
