Mumbai, April 21: In a strong yet necessary jibe at the Congress party and the Gandhi family, Maharashtra BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday said that the Gandhi family was creating an atmosphere of negativity amid the COVID-19 situation. "I'd like to ask Priyanka ji if she ever discussed these things with her Govt in Maharashtra. What is the condition there? 38-40 per cent of total deaths due to COVID are in Maharashtra', he said.

This is a day after Priyanka Gandhi accused former Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis of hoarding Remdesivir, saying a BJP leader holding on to the drug at a time when people are scrambling to arrange it is a “crime against humanity”. Taking to Twitter, the Congress general secretary tagged a video of top Maharashtra BJP leaders, including Fadnavis, arguing with police officials after the Mumbai Police questioned a pharma company director following information that thousands of vials of the Remdesivir drug, critical in COVID-19 treatment, were to be flown out of the country.

Fadnavis added, "35-40 per cent of total cases and 35-37 per cent of active cases are in Maharashtra. Why did it not prepare when it was worst affected last time? Priyanka, Rahul and Sonia Gandhi, Manmohan ji wrote letter and held press conferences to set narrative. Why did they not suggest Maharashtra?"

“At a time when people from every corner of the country are requesting for being provided with Remdesivir, and many are struggling to procure a bottle of Remdesivir to save their lives, a BJP leader, who was in responsible position, hoarding Remdesivir is a crime against humanity,” Vadra had said in a tweet in Hindi. The Mumbai Police on April 18 said they had information that the Remdesivir stock was going to be flown abroad as air cargo, despite a ban on the export of the drug.
