First foreign agents target us!
Then our own targets us on a foreign land!
Rahul Gandhi’s speech at Cambridge was nothing but a brazen attempt to denigrate our country on foreign soil in the guise of targeting Adarniya PM Shri @narendramodi ji.
Thread
Rahul says Indian democracy is under threat because he can't freely express himself.
FACT: He travelled 4,000 km in his yatra incident-free under the protection provided by Modi Govt. Do we need to remind him how yatras led by BJP leaders were sabotaged when Cong was in power?
Rahul says Pegasus was found on his phone and an “officer” warned him regarding it.
FACT: He refused to submit his phone for investigation when Supreme Court asked for it. Following extensive investigation, SC concluded that there was no evidence of Pegasus.
Dear @ArvindKejriwal Ji, Your ignorance is painful. Let me help you. Assam is 50 times bigger than Delhi! Our 44521 govt schools teach 65 lakh students- against your 1000+ odd schools. Our army of dedicated teachers number 2+ lakh; Midday meal workers 1.18 lakh. Fathom it?👇
Unlike in Delhi, we manage fury of floods, dealt with militancy, negotiate hilly & tough terrains - and yet deliver high quality education.
We're amazing hosts. Please come; spend 2 nights in our riverine area and hill districts. See challenges we face. You'll stop lecturing👇
We impart education in six mediums including 14 different tribal languages. Our diversity is something that we'r proud of, cherish, & ensure it to thrive through our unique education system. And yes, we do not have resources like that in Delhi. We're proud of what we've and do!👇
Member (Health) @NITIAayog & Chair of National Expert Group on Vaccine Administration for COVID-19 (NEGVAC) Dr Vinod Paul has addressed many myths around #CovidVaccination and gives out facts on all these issues.
Myth 1: Centre is not doing enough to buy vaccines from abroad
Fact: Buying vaccines internationally is not similar to buying off the shelf items. Vaccines are in limited supply globally & companies have their own priorities, game-plans & compulsions in allocating finite stocks.
Myth 2: Centre has not approved vaccines available globally
Fact: The Central Government has proactively eased entry of vaccines approved by US FDA, EMA, UK's MHRA and Japan's PMDA, and WHO's Emergency Use Listing into India in April.
