Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Sunday took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, thanking him for sparing “a little time” amidst the “urgent war to conquer West Bengal”, to review the coronavirus situation in the country.
He also criticised the prime minister for his “Didi-O-Didi” remark, asking if this is the manner in which the prime minister should refer to a chief minister.
“Thank you Prime Minister for sparing a little time for Covid amidst the urgent war to conquer WEST BENGAL and annexe it to the BJP’s empire,” Chidambaram said on Twitter.
His remarks came after Modi chaired a Covid-19 review meeting with government officials on Saturday.
