अंदर 177 लाशे पड़ी है, बाहर से हॉस्पिटल की रंगाई पुताई का काम चल रहा है, क्यों की महामानव जी कल कैमरे लेकर स्टंट करने जायेंगे वहां। बेशर्मी की हद होती है।

Gujarat Congress spokesperson Hemang Raval commenting on the issue wrote, “When so many people are dying, painting and decoration work is happening at the civil hospital in Morbi. The BJP is only known for its event management. There are two types of disasters but the BJP in Gujarat is the third type of disaster. Instead of painting and decorating, they should ensure that the patients get proper treatment.”
