Centre has shown shocking insensitivity, arrogance toward farmers, says Sonia Gandhi

Congress president Sonia Gandhi, in her opening remarks to the Congress Working Committee (CWC) on Friday, touched upon a range of issues including the ongoing farmers’ agitation, vaccination drive for healthcare workers and upcoming Parliament session and accused the government of shocking insensitivity towards farmers.

Ms. Gandhi accused the government of selling off public assets and resorting to panic privatisation and asserted that the Congress would never accept it.

She also referred to security implications of the leaked WhatsApp chats of Republic TV promoter Arnab Goswami and questioned the silence of the government on the issue, stating that those who gave certificates of patriotism to others now stood exposed.
