Kolkata: The Trinamool Congress and the BJP, on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda on Wednesday, vowed to combat the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic with renewed vigour, even as the saffron camp accused the ruling party of being responsible for the surge in fresh infections.
Days after advocating the suspension of political programmes and religious meetings for two months, TMC national general secretary and the Diamond Harbour MP Abhishek Banerjee said unique initiatives and strict measures would be taken in his constituency to control the spread of the disease, beginning with a thrust on sample examination.
“On Swami Vivekananda Ji’s birth anniversary, with renewed energy, Diamond Harbour PC aims to fight #COVID19 by implementing unique initiatives & strict measures. 30,000 COVID tests to be done today!” Banerjee tweeted in the morning.
