He tagged a media report which claimed that Delhi along with many other states was facing a shortage of vaccines but the Centre had denied it.

”Jumle hain, vaccine nahin (There is rhetoric, no vaccines),” Gandhi tweeted using the hashtag ‘WhereAreVaccines’.

Congress leader P Chidambaram on Tuesday had hit out at the government’s COVID-19 inoculation programme, terming its promise of vaccinating all adults by December end as an ”empty boast” and a ”false promise”.

The Congress has been criticising the government over its vaccination programme alleging that it is slow.
