"No Greater Fraud": Manish Sisodia On Centre Refusing Oxygen Deaths Panel

PM Modi was busy with West Bengal polls during the second Covid wave, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister says.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government is playing a huge fraud by refusing to form a panel to investigate deaths due to oxygen shortage during the second Covid wave and citing a Supreme Court-appointed task force to avoid it, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said today. He said the task force had not gone about its task in the right manner and blamed the Centre and the Prime Minister for mismanaging the pandemic earlier this year when the number of deaths reached unprecedented levels across the country. "The central government is saying there is no need to form a committee because a task force has been formed under the order of the Supreme Court," said Mr Sisodia. "However, the five points of the task force that is being formed are recommendations for the coming time on how oxygen will be managed...I do not think that any central government would have ever done such a big fraud."
