BJP President JP Nadda in a scathing letter to Congress social gathering president Sonia Gandhi on Tuesday lambasted the opposition together with some Congress Chief Ministers for intentionally creating commotion when the nation is coping with a pandemic, for petty political positive factors.
The social gathering president instantly attacked the opposition for creating vaccine hesitancy and mismanaging funds and Covid-19 aid materials allotted utilizing the PM Cares Fund. He stated in his letter that “the top echelons of the Congress would stop misleading people, creating false panic and even contradicting their stands just based on political considerations.” 
Expressing his displeasure over the conduct of some Congress leaders and Chief Ministers, JP Nadda in his letter referred to as out the social gathering leaders who “left no opportunity to mock” the efforts being taken by the scientists, docs and innovators to develop a Covid-19 vaccine. 
As the opposition relentlessly championed making vaccines free for all, Nadda questioned the social gathering’s intent saying when the BJP-NDA led states may announce free vaccines for the poor, what stopped the Congress. The letter additionally highlighted the hypocrisy of former Congress President Rahul Gandhi for demanding a lockdown after efficiently finishing his rallies within the poll-bound states down South.
Here’s what the letter stated
The full textual content of Nadda’s letter is reproduced right here:
“Powered by our Corona warriors, India is at present waging a spirited battle in opposition to the COVID-19 international pandemic. Our nation is conducting the biggest vaccination drive on this planet. India’s vaccination technique has been guided by international greatest practices. We started early in January and ensured that our COVID warriors get their pictures first. This has helped us tremendously in preventing the second wave. I’m certain you’ll additionally know that many Western nations haven’t even begun vaccinating their youthful inhabitants, in contrast to what is occurring in India.
Ever for the reason that pandemic struck in 2020, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has been working carefully with all arms of the Government so as to add extra momentum to the battle in opposition to the pandemic. Priority areas are augmenting medical capacities and making certain sufficient amenities to these struggling. Efforts are beneath means to make sure all elements are outfitted with sufficient drugs and different supplies required to fight COVID. In 2020, for 8 lengthy months, the Government of India offered free ration to the 80 crore Indians. The identical is being achieved even now.
The Prime Minister is working carefully with all Chief Ministers on this effort to defeat Coronavirus. He has chaired a number of conferences with Chief Ministers, which have been held in a cordial and congenial ambiance. Former Prime Minister and farmer chief Shri HD Deve Gowda himself referred to the Prime Minister’s emphasis on consulting a variety of stakeholders.It is on this context that I’m saddened however not shocked by the conduct of the Congress Party throughout these difficult occasions. While there are actually a number of members of your social gathering who (like a number of different selfless residents) are doing commendable work in serving to individuals, their hardwork will get eclipsed by the constant negativity unfold by the extra senior members of the social gathering.
I’m scripting this letter with a deep sense of ache. I’d by no means have written such a letter. But, trying on the confusion being created by members of the Congress Party, together with Chief Ministers belonging to the social gathering, I’m compelled to pen my ideas. One would need that whereas India is preventing COVID-19 with utmost braveness, the highest echelons of the Congress would cease deceptive individuals, creating false panic and even contradicting their stands simply primarily based on political issues.
Let me start with the vaccine. Throughout final yr, when our scientists, docs and innovators have been racing in opposition to time to discover a vaccine, your social gathering leaders left no alternative to mock these efforts. A vaccine that’s made in India ought to be a matter of nationwide pleasure. Instead, Congress leaders tried to ridicule it and create doubts within the minds of individuals. Even a Chief Minister belonging to your social gathering indulged in such antics. In a nation that has virtually no latest historical past of vaccine hesitancy, your social gathering has the doubtful report of making an attempt to actively create it, that too, in the course of a once-in-a-century pandemic.
I’d additionally like to handle the debates round entry to vaccines. States which have BJP or NDA authorities have introduced their resolve to assist the poor and underprivileged by offering vaccines free of charge. I’m certain that Congress Governments in numerous states additionally really feel strongly for the poor. Can in addition they come out with an analogous choice to offer vaccines free of charge?The COVID-19 vaccine made in India doesn’t belong to any political social gathering or leader- it belongs to the nation. Yet, the Congress Party may didn’t do the suitable factor as an alternative solely did the improper politics.
May I additionally deal with the subject of offering supportive medical infrastructure to battle COVID-19. When the pandemic struck, the Government of India mentioned the necessity for ventilators with all states. So far round 45,000 ventilators have been produced & procured in mission mode and despatched to all states. But it’s saddening to see visuals of ventilators despatched by way of PM-CARES Fund mendacity round unused in sure states. I hope you deal with these points on a precedence.
In this battle in opposition to the pandemic, the conduct of the topmost Congress leaders together with former Congress President Shri Rahul Gandhi can be remembered for duplicity and pettiness. Your social gathering, beneath your management, is doing no favors to itself by opposing lockdowns after which demanding for a similar, ignoring the Centre’s advisories on the second wave of COVID after which saying they didn’t get any data, holding huge election rallies in Kerala inflicting a spike in COVID circumstances whereas grandstanding about election rallies elsewhere, support-ing protests however talking about following COVID pointers. Even when the second wave was on the rise, your social gathering leaders have been happier being seen in tremendous spreader political occasions in North India, the place there was no regard for masks or social distancing. This isn’t the period when such data will be erased from public reminiscence.”
We had reported on how the ventilators despatched to the states of Rajasthan, Punjab and Jharkhand have been mendacity unused and gathering mud originally of the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. 
It is crucial to notice that Union Minister Prakash Javadekar in his unique write-up to the media had additionally explicitly talked about that the state of Kerala was warned by the Centre of the second wave of the pandemic within the month of January itself.
Sonia Gandhi assaults PM
The letter by the BJP social gathering president comes days after Sonia Gandhi from a parliamentary social gathering assembly had launched an assault on Prime Minister Narendra Modi alleging that the Centre has did not handle the well being disaster. 
“India is within the grip of a lethal well being catastrophe. Thousands have died and thousands and thousands are scrambling to entry fundamental healthcare, life-saving medicines, oxygen, and vaccines. It is heartbreaking to see individuals battling for his or her lives in hospitals, on roads, ready in automobiles, far too many for need of any medical assist in any respect.
And what’s the Modi authorities doing? Instead of assuaging their struggling and ache, it has abdicated its elementary obligations and duties in the direction of the individuals,” Sonia had stated in her speech.
