With his rallies, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is accused by the Trinamool Congress (TMC) of "placing thousands of lives in danger" and "making Tripura into a Covid manufacturing hotspot." In a tweet, the TMC's Tripura unit said, "Shame on Biplab Deb for gambling with people's lives."
This comes on the day that the Prime Minister inaugurated the Maharaja Bir Bikram Airport's new integrated terminal building in Tripura. A large crowd had gathered at the event in order to catch a glimpse of Prime Minister Modi.
"The Prime Minister of India is pushing thousands of lives into danger! Turning Tripura into a 'COVID Manufacturing Hub', does the PM really think he is capable of protecting people? SHAME @narendramodiji.SHAME ON @BjpBiplab for TOYING WITH PEOPLE'S LIVES!" the tweet read.
The Centre set new guidelines after the finding of the "highly transmissible" Omicron variant, but none were followed during the BJP gathering in Tripura. The majority of those attending the event are not wearing face masks. The TMC slammed the Biplab Deb-led government in the state and slammed the government over the incident.
