Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Monday that the government may have made a “mistake (galti)” or “fallen short (kam pad gaye honge)” while dealing with the Covid-19 outbreak and the ensuing migrant workers’ crisis, but its commitment (nishtha) was clear.
Saying that the Narendra Modi government had announced a package of Rs 1,70,000 crore, he asked the Opposition what it had done. Shah was addressing a virtual rally for Odisha from New Delhi.
Shah said that compared to other countries, India was well-placed. “Big countries have been destroyed in front of it (Covid-19). Since Independence, there have been many epidemics and natural disasters. Earlier, the governments would wage a fight. But Narendra Modiji took people along. The result is that even as the government is fighting, people are also alert,” he said.
