On the issue of migrants, the law minister further said, “If we would have been able to implement NPR properly, the migrant would have not faced so much trouble.”
Prasad further attacked Congress party on the role it is playing as an irresponsible opposition and lauded PM Modi for his stern leadership in testing times. “If Congress have so much issue with lockdown, so why Congress-led states are imposing it? People know PM Modi works for them and will continue to do,” he said.
