Uttarakhand : India’s Nero playing the electoral flute, leaving Rome to burn- Rajiv Mehrishi
Expressing deep grief over the death of Indian student Naveen Kumar in Russian shelling in Ukraine, media in-charge of Uttarakhand Pradesh Congress Committee, Rajiv Mehrishi termed the incident as the failure of the Indian government and said that the priority of the Prime Minister of India is the election campaign of Uttar Pradesh. Whereas Indian students trapped in Ukraine, pleading for help to return home, have been disappointed. He said the recent incident is similar to that of Nero in Rome, that Prime Minister Modi is giving importance to elections over trying to get his citizens out of the war zone.
Shri Maharishi said that elections will keep coming and going, but saving the lives of the citizens of India whose lives are in danger at this time should have been the priority of the government at this time, but the Prime Minister is finding the power of Uttar Pradesh more important. Congress media in-charge said that there is still time, the government should focus on the safe return of Indian citizens trapped in Ukraine, otherwise people do not delay in showing Nero his place when the time comes.
He said that elections are important in a democracy, but in the event of war, saving the lives of civilians is more important than elections. The videos that are coming out of Indian students trapped in Ukraine are very painful, but the Modi government at the Center did not take it seriously. Rajiv Mehrishi also took a dig at the Dhami government of Uttarakhand and said that this government is collecting the details of the students trapped in Ukraine from the districts, while all the details are available on the website of the Ministry of External Affairs, such an incompetent government is not even entitled to pardon, Who lost a whole week in gathering details. He has demanded that the government still focus on the safe return of its citizens, otherwise people will never forgive it.
