Congress, AAP Allege Morbi Civil Hospital Renovated Ahead Of PM Modi’s Visit Today

On Sunday, a suspension foot-bridge over Machchu river collapsed in Gujarat’s Morbi city killing 134 people. PM Modi is scheduled to visit the city today afternoon to review the situation. 

New Delhi: The Congress party and Aam Aadmi Party on Tuesday targeted the Bharatiya Janata Party and Prime Minister Narendra Modi over renovation of Morbi civil hospital alleging that it is being done ahead of PM Modi’s visit to the city in the aftermath of tragic bridge collapse on Sunday. Sharing photos and videos of white wash and other renovation works being done at the hospital, both Congress and AAP questioned the timing of the work. 

On Sunday, a suspension foot-bridge over Machchu river collapsed in Gujarat’s Morbi city killing 134 people. PM Modi is scheduled to visit the city today afternoon to review the situation. 

Terming the renovation as a preparation on “war footing”, Congress social media and digital platforms chairperson Supriya Shrinate alleged that it is being done ahead of PM Modi’s visit. 

“PM Modi will visit Morbi's Civil Hospital tomorrow - for him, the hospital is being painted on a war footing,” she tweeted. 

“In a hospital with gleaming walls and new tiles, the injured might feel better - there's hope. About 200 people are reported to have died in the Morbi tragedy,” she added. 

The Aam Aadmi Party, which is aggressively campaigning in the state for the upcoming Assembly elections, also shared a video of renovation work at the hospital and took a dig saying that it is being done so that “the poor building does not get exposed in PM Modi's photoshoot.”

“Overnight painting is being done in Morbi Civil Hospital so that the poor building does not get exposed in PM Modi's photoshoot tomorrow,” tweeted the official page of AAP. 

“141 people are dead, hundreds of people are missing, no action has been taken against the real culprits, but BJP workers are worried about the photoshoots..”, it added.
