Vandana Mishra died Friday evening allegedly after being stuck in traffic during the president's visit while she was being taken to a private hospital in Kakadev.
Describing the pandemic situation as 'grave', Congress MP Chowdhury said there is a need to find a national solution to ease the lives of people suffering from the virus.
President Ram Nath Kovind had undergone a health check-up at the Army Hospital (R&R) following chest discomfort Friday. He was shifted to AIIMS Saturday.
The President thanked all doctors, nurses who are successfully implementing the largest vaccination drive in history and urged all eligible citizens to get vaccinated.
Noting that scientists have warned of similar challenges in the future, President Ram Nath Kovind said he hoped the world has learnt the right lessons from Covid-19.
In his address in Parliament Friday, Kovind mentioned the Kisan Rail project of the railways which was announced by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in Budget 2020.
The last time this matter flared up was when Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, in a very similar directive in April, called for the relocation of stray dogs in the capital.
Finance ministry says the proposed revamp will focus on structural reforms, rate rationalisation & ease of living, & will be deliberated upon in the coming weeks.
The project is meant to be a ‘protective shield that will keep expanding’, the PM said. It is on the lines of the ‘Golden Dome’ announced by Trump, it is learnt.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
