Joshi alleged that Madhya Pradesh and the Central Government are constantly telling lies about the corona situation. Innumerable innocent people have lost their lives so far but the government is hiding true figures of deaths. Hospital beds and injections are being sold by BJP people. But to hide his failures, Shivraj filed a false FIR against Kamal Nath, who speaks the truth and fights the people, he said.
