Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi has once again attacked the Modi government after latest coronavirus cases have made India the fourth worst-hit country . He described it as a horrific tragedy, resulting from a lethal blend of “arrogance and incompetence”.

India earlier went past the United Kingdom in terms of coronavirus cases to become the fourth worst-hit country, according to the Worldometer and Johns Hopkins University data.

“India is firmly on it’s way to winning the wrong race. A horrific tragedy, resulting from a lethal blend of arrogance and incompetence,” Gandhi tweeted along with a visual graph showing India’s climb to the fourth spot in terms of cases.

Gandhi’s remarks came on a day when for the first time since the COVID-19 outbreak, India recorded over 10,000 new cases in a day taking the tally to 2,97,535, while the death toll rose to 8,498 with a record single-day spike of 396 fatalities.
