Mallikarjun Kharge was rejected by the Union Minister

However, rejecting this claim of Mallikarjun Kharge, Union Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu, after visiting the accident site, said that the part of the airport roof that has fallen is part of the roof built in 2009. It was not inaugurated by PM Modi. The minister said that we are taking this incident seriously. I want to clarify that the building inaugurated by PM Narendra Modi is on the other side and the building that has fallen here is an old building and it was inaugurated in 2009. GMR had given the contract for this work to private contractors. In this way, the war between Congress and BJP continued throughout the day on social media regarding the collapse of the airport roof. Let us show you who has made what allegations and counter-allegations.

Congress general secretary and president targeted the center

Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh raised questions on the accident at Delhi Airport and said that the Prime Minister had inaugurated Delhi Airport Terminal-1 in March, today its roof collapsed in which a cab driver died a painful death. The roof of Jabalpur Airport, which was inaugurated by the Prime Minister three months ago, also collapsed. The whole country is saddened by the poor condition of construction work in Ayodhya. This is BJP's corrupt model of taking donations and giving business, which has now been exposed. The question is whether the Prime Minister will take responsibility for these poor construction works and this corrupt model?

Not only this, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge posted on X and wrote – Corruption and criminal negligence are responsible for the poor infrastructure that has collapsed like a pack of cards in the last 10 years of the Modi government. The collapse of the roof of Delhi Airport (T1), the collapse of the roof of Jabalpur Airport, the poor condition of the new roads of Ayodhya, leakage in Ram Mandir, cracks in Mumbai Trans Harbor Link Road, collapse of 13 new bridges in Bihar in 2023 and 2024, the submergence of Pragati Maidan tunnel, the collapse of Morbi bridge in Gujarat tragedy are some of the clear examples that expose the big claims of Modi ji and BJP to build world-class infrastructure. On March 10, when Modi ji inaugurated Delhi Airport T1, he called himself a man of the other soil. After this, the party president expressed his condolences to the victims and wrote that our heartfelt condolences to the victims of the Delhi Airport tragedy

At the same time, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi also targeted PM Modi and wrote on Twitter that the roof of Delhi Airport Terminal-1, which was inaugurated by the Prime Minister in March, collapsed today, in which a cab driver died tragically. The roof of Jabalpur Airport, which was inaugurated by the Prime Minister three months ago, also collapsed. The whole country is saddened by the poor condition of construction work in Ayodhya. She also questioned the PM for taking responsibility and said that this is the corrupt model of BJP of doing business by taking donations, which has now been exposed. The question is whether the Prime Minister will take responsibility for these poor construction works and this corrupt model?

BJP leader Amit Malviya hit back

BJP leaders also strongly retaliated to the tweets of many Congress leaders. BJP leader Amit Malviya hit back at the Congress's remarks, claiming that during the Congress-led UPA government, whoever sent the biggest bribe was given contracts. The part of T1 that collapsed was opened in 2009, when the Congress-led UPA was in power. There was no concept of quality checks in those days and whoever sent the biggest bribe to the ruling Congress was given contracts. He further wrote that Sonia Gandhi, who was the super PM at that time, should respond.

A compensation of Rs 20 lakh has been announced for the family of the person who died in the accident that took place at Delhi airport on Friday morning. Along with this, Delhi airport has said that all the injured will be given a compensation of Rs three lakh each.
