Trinamool Congress poll strategist, Prashant Kishor has accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of ignoring the Covid-19 crisis to "hide his lack of understanding and foresightedness".

Prashant Kishor took to Twitter to accuse the Prime Minister, soon after Modi addressed the nation on the coronavirus situation amid a surge in cases.

He also alleged that the prime minister bluffed people to claim victory in the battle against the pandemic.

#ModiGovt handling of crisis:

#1: ignore problem to hide lack of understanding & foresightedness

#2: suddenly take control, use bluff & bluster to claim victory

#3: if problem persists, pass it on to others

#4: when situation improves, return with Bhakts’ army to take credit
