New Delhi: Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Saturday reviewed the efforts by the states ruled by her party to tackle the second wave of the coronavirus infection and the vaccination drive.

“Government exported Covid-19 vaccines and allowed shortage in India,” Gandhi said at meeting of Congress-ruled states to review Covid-19 situation. “Public gatherings, including poll rallies, should be cancelled,” she added.

Addressing a virtual meeting with the chief ministers of the Congress-ruled states and ministers of the party in states where it is in power in alliance with others, she said the priority should be to test, track and vaccinate.

Gandhi also reviewed the efforts to fight COVID-19, including the availability of vaccines, access to medicines and ventilators, Congress’s chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said.

“The priority is to test, track and vaccinate,” he wrote on Twitter, quoting Gandhi.
