Udupi: Former Minister Vinay Kumar Sorake lashed out at the BJP government in the State and Centre for its ‘failure’ to tackle   Covid-19

Sorake said, ” The government ignored the suggestions of the Health advisory committee which has led to the second wave. There is a shortage of beds, oxygen, ventilators,  vaccine, medicines, ambulance.  Government is responsible for this.  Looking at the current situation, Supreme Court intervened and created a task force consisting of experts and experienced doctors”

Hitting out at BJP leaders, he said, ” Recently,  Sadananda Gowda asks whether he should hang himself?  Another great BJP leader of the state  CT Ravi has insulted the judicial system. I demand the immediate resignation of both the BJP leaders”

” Several countries are suffering due to Covid-19 but the respective governments are doing their job. But in our country, our system has failed. I demand  PM Modi and Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa resign from their post and save the lives of people,” he added
