Centre needs to be 'transparent' on its lockdown exit plan: Rahul Gandhi
New Delhi/IBNS: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday said the Indian government needs to be 'transparent' in its action on when the lockdown imposed by it to tackle COVID-19 will be exited.
"The central thing that Government needs to do now is, give a little bit of transparency on its actions. We need to understand when they open the Coronavirus lockdown what will be the criteria for its opening," Rahul Gandhi said while addressing a video conference with reporters.
"This is not the time to criticise, we need a strategy to open the lockdown," Gandhi said.
He urged the Union government not to centralise its decision making.
The lockdown was earlier scheduled to end on May 3.
It was extended for two more weeks.
