The prime minister said had there been no Congress, there would be no Emergency, or Sikh genocide. The PM also attacked the opposition over vaccines, saying immaturity by some leaders had left the country disappointed.
The Bharatiya Janata Party released its manifesto for the Uttar Pradesh polls.

The BJP has promised free electricity for farmers, formulation of minimum support price for wheat and rice in its manifesto. The saffron party has also promised financial assistance of Rs 1 lakh for marriage of girls belonging to poor families and other sops for women. Bharatiya Janata Party MP Varun Gandhi on Tuesday described as ‘atrocious’ the appointment of Santishree Dhulipudi Pandit as the new vice-chancellor of the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), as he pointed out ‘multiple grammatical mistakes’ in her press release thanking the Prime Minister and Minister of Education for appointing her as the first woman VC of the Delhi-based university.

The precious formative years of a child are for it to explore, touch, hear, speak, feel and see things, outside their home. This opportunity, unfortunately, was snatched from them. Now, a recent study has shed light on the impact of isolation on children. The study, led by the University of Oslo, found that, during lockdown, children who were read to more frequently were reported by their caregivers to have learned more words, relative to their peers who were read to less frequently. However, children with increased exposure to screens learned to say fewer words, relative to their peers with less screen time.
