Jagan to CM: ‘Don’t indulge in such politics’

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy on Friday afternoon advised his Jharkhand counterpart Hemant Soren, who had criticized Narendra Modi earlier today over the Prime Minister allegedly being concerned only about himself and not about the handling of the coronavirus crisis. 

Taking to Twitter, Jagan said that he has great respect for Soren, but as a brother he would urge him to not indulging in cheap politics. 

“No matter whatever our differences are, indulging in such level of politics would only weaken our own nation. In this war against Covid-19, these are the times not to point fingers but to come together and strengthen the hands of our Prime Minister to effectively combat the pandemic,” the YCP chief wrote. 

N Biren Singh, the Chief Minister of Manipur, wrote, “In my experience, whenever our Hon’ble PM Shri @narendramodi ji calls, it has been always assuring. I really admire his passion to understand the challenges Manipur had encountered. Shri @HemantSorenJMM ji, let the collective spirit be our guiding light.”

“We are really fortunate to have an active, attentive and a very responsive Prime Minister like Shri @narendramodi ji in times like this. I personally find it quite comforting, getting his calls; inquiring about my state’s Covid-19 situation, forest fires, refugee problems etc,” the Chief Minister of Mizoram wrote.
