New Delhi: Congress leader P. Chidambaram on Sunday lashed out at the government for making claims 'contrary to the reality' in the country.
Chidambaram tweeted, "While "no vaccine" boards hang on the door of most hospitals, Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan claims that "there is no shortage in the supply of vaccines".
"Believe the minister, there is no shortage of vaccines, oxygen, Remdisvir, hospital beds, doctors and nurses. There is only a shortage of patients!"
He also attacked the Prime Minister and said, "Thank you Prime Minister for sparing a little time for Covid amidst the urgent war to conquer W BENGAL and annexe it to the BJP's empire."
Chidambaram attack comes after the country reported 2,61,500 fresh Covid cases in the last 24 hours, the highest single-day spike ever, pushing the country's overall Covid tally to 1,47,88,109, according to the Health Ministry data released on Sunday.
