‘Delhi CM does not speak for India’: Centre rejects Kejriwal’s ‘Singapore strain’ remark

A day after the Singapore government denied Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s statement that a variant of the novel coronavirus found in Singapore could usher in a third wave in the country, the Centre on Wednesday said that the Delhi Chief Minister had “no competence to pronounce on Covid variants or civil aviation policy”.

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that “irresponsible comments from those who should know better can damage long-standing partnerships”.
