Congress Secretary General Priyanka Gandhi Vadra asked UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday to explain the basis for the statement in which he allegedly claimed that large numbers of workers returning from other states were infected by the coronavirus.

In the video posted by Priyanka Gandhi, Adityanath says that 75% of migrant workers returning from Mumbai are infected with the virus.
“Fifty percent of workers from Delhi are infected. Widespread infections have been reported in 25 to 30 percent of workers from other states,” he said in the video.
“It is a challenge for us and all of our teams are working hard on it. Over 75,000 medical teams work across the state. The result of screening, testing and treatment is that today we have been able to control it (COVID-19) to a large extent, “said the CM in the video.
Launching an attack on Adityanath, the Secretary General of Congress said in a tweet: “Does the Chief Minister say that more than 10 lakh people in the UP are infected with corona? However, his government figures indicate that “There are 6,228 cases of infection. What is the basis of infection statistics.”
“Where does this percentage of infection among migrant workers who have returned to the state come from, and if so, why then fewer tests are done,” she added.
In a direct question to the Chief Minister, the Chief of Congress said that if there was any truth in the Chief Minister’s statement, the government should share the data on tests, infections and other preparations with the audience and tell him what his availability was. to control the disease.
