Even as Maharashtra is buffeted by unprecedented daily COVID-19 case spikes, politics over the pandemic situation continued in earnest with Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray on Tuesday attributing the alarming surge to a large number of people from other States who were entering the State “without doing their anti-virus tests”. “While the second wave seems to be more terrible than the first, it does beg the question why only Maharashtra is experiencing such an alarming renascence,” he said in Mumbai. Observing that a large number of people from other States come to work in Maharashtra owing to its industrial capacity, he said despite “mass congregation” events like farmer agitations in the north and the West Bengal elections, there had been no drastic spike in cases in those regions as compared with Maharashtra.More Related News
