Patna, Aug 2 (UNI) Describing Bihar government as "inefficient" in fighting against the Novel Coronavirus pandemic, former Union Finance Minister Yashwant Sinha on Sunday said that Bihar government lacked foresightedness in making arrangements, despite getting ample time for it.
Terming the situation in Bihar as pathetic and horrible following sufferings of the humankind due to the surging infection, Mr Sinha said here that the first case of COVID-19 was detected in March in Bihar.
He said during the lockdown period, the state government should have strengthened its Medical System but instead of doing so, it totally neglected to evolve any strategy to fight against the pandemic.
