NEW DELHI: Senior Congress leader
Digvijaya Singh was trolled on Thursday after he shared images of seemingly defunct 108 and 102 ambulances from Andhra Pradesh to shame the
Uttar Pradesh chief minister.
Singh on Tuesday tweeted a photo of several ambulances parked in what appeared to be a junkyard and wrote a caption alongside stating that the service was started by former UP chief minister
Akhilesh Yadav. Singh wrote that since the ambulances were out of use, people of Uttar Pradesh were being forced to carry their unwell relatives on make-shift stretchers.
Using a couple of hashtags, the former Madhya Pradesh chief minister also attempted to shame Yogi Adityanath’s government.
However, Singh seemed to have overlooked the fact that the ambulances bore stickers of Andhra Pradesh government and were inscribed with text in Telugu.
This wasn’t the first time Digvijaya has used a ‘wrong’ photo to criticise his opponents. A few months ago, he had to apologise for Tweeting a photograph of a pillar in Pakistan claiming it to be a railway bridge in
Bhopal.
