Under such circumstances, it’s weird that Shashi Tharoor, and by extension, the Congress occasion, is attacking the Indian Government as a result of export of Covid-19 vaccines have been dropped at a halt.

“Hit by the onset of the devastating second wave, New Delhi quickly banned these exports, redirecting supplies, instead, to states within the country and opening up the vaccination programme to priority age-groups. In the process, dozens of nations depending on supplies through Gavi were left high and dry,” it added.
Quite clearly, it’s a ‘Heads I win, Tails you lose” state of affairs and an agenda-driven criticism of the Indian Government. Adding to that, the Congress occasion is partaking in flip-flops that will put anybody to disgrace.
Other ‘journalists’ are additionally leaping on the bandwagon with criticism that hardly makes any sense.
