Pained to see people dying of bed, O2 crunch: Hooda

Chandigarh, June 18

Former CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda said he was pained to see people dying due to the lack of beds, oxygen and medicines. Reacting to the statement made by CM Manohar Lal Khattar that his pain was political, Hooda said he was deeply pained by the human sufferings.

“It pains me to see how Haryana, which had reached number 1 spot in the country through hard work of nine and a half years, has been brought down to the ranks of the poorest states by the BJP’s misrule. During the Congress tenure, Haryana was the leading state on all parameters, including per capita income, investment, employment generation, farmers’ interest, honour and respect of sportspersons. But now, it leads in crime, unemployment, pollution, debt, scams and atrocities on farmers.”

He said he was pained to see the condition of the farmers fighting on the streets for their legitimate demands for the past seven months. — TNS
