Gandhi also shared a graph that showed how the four lockdowns have flattened the wrong curve of the economy, instead of Covid-19 deaths, which are rising in the country.
The former Congress president has been critical of the government's handling of the coronavirus pandemic by imposing lockdowns, which he has claimed as failure as they have not given the desired results.

Gandhi has also held the government responsible for the state of the economy and has been demanding a financial stimulus that provides cash in the hands of people to help revive it.
