PPE kit scam in every district of UP: Priyanka Gandhi

LUCKNOW: Congress national general secretary and in charge of UP, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Saturday said that Covid-19 PPE kits scam has taken place in every district of UP.
In a twitter post, she stated that at a time when the Coronavirus disaster had upset life across the country and the livelihood of millions of people was in danger, the officers of the state government siphoned off crores of rupees. She also wondered whether the state government was interested in saving the wrong-doers.
In another tweet, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra wrote, "In the schemes meant for the general public at the time of the disaster, the BJP government, which cuts allowances, is running a gallop in the scam. The result is that the Corona kit scam is being done in almost every district of UP. The UP Congress has demonstrated and warned the government to stop saving scammers."
Meanwhile, Congress workers staged a demonstration outside the Vidhan Sabha to express anger against the alleged scam. Led by district Congress committee chief Mukesh Singh Chauhan, some of the protestors wore PPE kits to draw public attention. Besides, they raised anti-government slogans and flared black flags opposite the Vidhan Bhavan. The police on duty chased the Congressmen and took the protestors into custody.
