India’s reputation tarnished globally, says Congress leader
Former TPCC president and senior Congress leader Ponnala Lakshmaiah described the Narendra Modi government as the one that is sacrificing the country for pure personal and political aggrandizement. Speaking to reporters here on the seven-year rule of Mr. Modi, he said the present pandemic yet again proved the farcical governance. The dictatorial and selfish politics of Mr. Modi has severely impacted the way COVID-19 was handled and this adds to the huge list of failures in the last seven years, he said. He said the crisis was of an unimaginably huge magnitude, but it has been farcically handled with claps, lighting candles, and religious contemplation in this scientific era. The foundations of secularism are shattered, religion-based political interests are pursued and bred in the society to incite communal discord, he alleged.More Related News
