Oppn up in arms over unanswered covid related question

The beginning of last assembly session before the elections was rocky. The opposition went up in arms, after Health Minister Vishwajit Rane was absent on health grounds leaving crucial answers unanswered. The speaker’s ruling created confusion and he was forced to adjourn the assembly after the members rushed to the well of the house.

As only four months are left for the elections, the BJP government suffered a major setback after a report by National Institute of Technology said that people died due to lack of oxygen during the second wave of covid.

Opposition Leader Digambar Kamat and Fatorda MLA Vijai Sardesai raised this issue in the house. Porvorim MLA Rohan Khaunte had to request that a postponed question be answered.
