Even as the BJD and the BJP are involved in a tug-of-war for taking credit of Covid vaccination by putting their respective banners in the vaccination centres, National Students’ Union of India (NSUI) (Congress students’ wing) members on Wednesday took out a protest rally to the Satyanagar crematorium here and pasted photos of both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on the crematorium wall.
NSUI State president Yasir Nawaz said that when the ruling parties at the Centre and in the State are fighting to take credit for vaccination, they must also own responsibility for the Covid deaths. “When the vaccine is yours, you should also be held responsible for people’s sufferings” he said.
