Opposition steeped in negativity: Yogi (IANS Interview, Part 4)

Lucknow, June 3 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday slammed the opposition, which has been criticising his handling of the Covid-19 crisis.

“The opposition is steeped in negativity and is completely disconnected with ground realities. They should interact with people who will tell them how much our government has done in dealing with the crisis,” he said while speaking exclusively to a select group of journalists.

The Chief Minister said that the opposition leaders have made it a habit of making negative statements from their air-conditioned drawing rooms.

Adityanath said that his government has managed to contain the pandemic and the state only has about 3,200 active cases at the moment while 5,000 patients have been treated successfully and discharged from the hospitals.
