‘Bit too selective’: Health minister Harsh Vardhan calls out P Chidambaram after his ‘correction’ tweet

After PM Modi introduced free vaccination for all, Chidambaram stated that the federal government has learnt from its mistake.

Union Well being Minister Dr Harsh Vardhan at this time accused former finance minister and senior Congress chief P Chidambaram of being ‘selective’ after the latter corrected himself over a tweet in regards to the Centre’s vaccine coverage. Harsh Vardhan questioned P Chidambaram whether or not he cares to acknowledge one other chief’s (Rahul Gandhi) demand for letting States procure and distribute vaccines. “Being a bit too selective, are we, Sh @PChidambaram_IN Ji? Care to acknowledge one other so-called chief’s demand for letting States procure & distribute vaccines… No prizes for guessing who!” stated Harsh Vardhan in a tweet quoting P Chidambaram’s put up.

In one other tweet, Harsh Vardhan hit out at Rahul Gandhi terming him ‘typical suspect’ and ‘forgetful & self-contradicting topped worth’ for his demand associated to vaccine decentralisation. “As all the time, it’s the same old suspect, the forgetful & self-contradicting topped worth …Sh @RahulGandhi ji. After all, staying true to @INCIndia’s ethos, he did an entire U-turn later, receding on his earlier demand & then asking Centre to get the duty accomplished! See @INCIndia tweet,” stated Harsh Vardhan sharing a screenshot of Congress social gathering’s tweet.

After PM Modi introduced free vaccination for all, Chidambaram stated that the federal government has learnt from its mistake however as typical blames opposition for the errors it dedicated. Harsh Vardhan’s comment got here after Chidambaram stated that he ‘stands corrected’ over his declare that no state requested PM Narendra Modi to permit them to buy vaccines. To counter Chidambaram’s declare, numerous social media customers shared letters written to PM Modi by West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Congress chief Rahul Gandhi demanding decentralisation of vaccination coverage. To this, Chidambaram stated, “I instructed ANI ‘please inform us which state govt demanded that it needs to be allowed to instantly procure vaccines’. Social media activists have posted copy of letter of CM West Bengal to PM making such a request. I used to be flawed. I stand corrected,” he stated in a tweet.

Since he didn’t discuss with Rahul Gandhi’s letter, the well being minister took the chance to launch a counter-attack in opposition to the Congress, which has been cornering the federal government over its vaccine coverage.
