TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress leader P. Chidambaram on Tuesday countered the BJP raising the issue of Central Vista project. In a series of tweets, he said: “BJP spokesperson charges Delhi government with spending crores of rupees on advertisements without using the money for improving health infrastructure. Criticism justified.”
“BJP government spending a small amount of Rs 20,000 crore for the Central Vista including a modest new house for the PM. Criticism unjustified,” he said in another tweet.
Mounting an attack on the government on Covid management, in another tweet, Chidambaram said, “The three governing principles of pandemic management — 1. Deny shortages of anything. If there are multiple media reports of shortages, deny more vigorously. 2. Test less people, report less new infections. 3. Bury numbers reported from cremation and burial grounds, report less Covid related deaths, report lower TFR.”
