NEW DELHI: With the country under a 21-day lockdown in an attempt to rein in the coronavirus pandemic, Congress 's Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said the government should adopt a two-pronged approach to tackle the crisis - one focusing on isolating people and ramping up health infrastructure, and the other on economic measures."I believe our strategy should have two components. The first is tackling Covid-19 by isolating the virus, blocking its escape routes, expanding testing to identify and treat those who are infected and creating emergency field hospitals in urban areas with full ICU capability to provide care to patients," Rahul said.He said the second part should focus on the economy. "Those who survive on daily wages need immediate support through direct cash transfers and free rations. Delaying this will cause widespread devastation and chaos. Many industries are struggling. Act quickly by announcing tax breaks and financial support to prevent massive job losses and reassure business owners that the government will support them through this crisis," he added.Congress also demanded implementation of its flagship campaign pitch for the 2019 Lok Sabha polls, the Nyay Yojna, reiterating its ability to provide succour to daily wagers, poor and migrant labourers.While Congress promised a bank transfer of Rs 6,000 to the poorest, it urged the government to implement the minimum income guarantee scheme and announce a cash transfer of Rs 7,500 to every Jan Dhan, PM Kisan and pension account.Full report on www.toi.in
