Hitting out at the BJP over the rise in the number of deaths due to COVID-19, he said India will pay its price when the “illusion” is shattered.

BJP leader and Union minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat hit back, saying India paid a huge price for the illusion that the Gandhis had created for decades. He also attacked Gandhi for “wishing ill” for the country.

“BJP has institutionalised lies. 1. Covid19 by restricting testing and misreporting deaths. 2. GDP by using a new calculation method. 3. Chinese aggression by frightening the media. The illusion will break soon and India will pay the price,” Gandhi said in a tweet.

He tagged a news report on the coronavirus situation with his tweet.
