I'd like to urge each and every citizen to come forward and speak up against this Govt.

Patients & family members are not finding any help from Union Govt. Only NGOs & Youth Congress are helping them. BJP leaders have been caught hoarding emergency medicines. Central Govt is lying before the SC that enough oxygen is available: Shri @kharge#SpeakUpToSaveLives pic.twitter.com/ltD9X4Y8nS

आज पूरा देश कोरोना महामारी से परेशान है। लोगों को जो आइसीयू, बेड, दवाइयों, ऑक्सीजन, इंजेक्शन की जरूरत है, वो मिल नहीं रहे हैं। इस कोरोना महामारी के खिलाफ गंभीरता से लड़ाई नहीं लड़ी गई: श्री @shaktisinhgohil #SpeakUpToSaveLives pic.twitter.com/3Xix5bndpU
