Pakistan competes better against corona virus than India, says Rahul Gandhi

Congress central leader Rahul Gandhi has criticized India, saying that Pakistan and Afghanistan have also fought the Corona epidemic better.

Rahul Gandhi cited a chart released by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) which predicts economic growth in South Asian countries between 2020 and 2021, despite being affected by Corona. The chart covers Bangladesh, Myanmar, Nepal, China, Bhutan, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan and India.

He said the Indian economy would shrink by 10.3 per cent during this period, which he sarcastically described as a "concrete achievement" by the Modi government.

In his tweet, Rahul also referred to the chart which shows the slowest growth of the Indian economy. In his tweet with the chart, he said, "Even Pakistan and Afghanistan have competed better in Covid-19 than India, which is a solid achievement of the government." He also termed the BJP's six-year rule as "hateful nationalism".

It should be noted that according to the IMF, the number of cases of corona in India is still increasing rapidly and it has had a very negative impact on the economy.
