Save your life because PM busy with peacocks: Rahul Gandhi attacks PM Modi on Covid-19 handling

Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday launched a scathing attack on the Modi government over its handling of the coronavirus pandemic. Rahul said that people of India will have to become ‘aatmanirbhar‘ (self-reliant) and ‘save their own lives because the Prime Minister is busy with a peacock.’

Rahul was referring to a video shared by the Prime Minister recently on his social media pages. The 1.47-minute-long video was shared with a poem in Hindi. The video featured the PM feeding grains to peacocks at his official residence at Lok Kalyan Marg in New Delhi.

Rahul also slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the unplanned lockdown and called it a ‘gift of one man’s ego’.
