Is UP Preparing To Make Way For 3rd Wave, Then Fight It: Priyanka Gandhi

Mumbai: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Tuesday targeted Yogi Adityanath’s government over the alleged low COVID-19 test in Uttar Pradesh and asked if the state government was preparing to make way for the third wave and then fight it.

“Only 800-1,000 RT-PCR tests are being conducted every day for the same 32 lakh population of Bijnor. The honourable high court has said that 4,000-5,000 RT-PCR tests should be done daily in a district like Bijnor or else we are inviting the third wave,” Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi.

“Is the UP government preparing to make way for the third wave and then fight it,” the Congress general secretary said, tagging media reports on the high court’s observations.
