They (Centre) will soon say there was no COVID-19. If there were no deaths due to lack of oxygen, then why were hospitals going to High Court for shortages? This is completely false: Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain on Centre saying `no deaths due to lack of oxygen` pic.twitter.com/FTz56X6kUw

Talking about controversy related to the `Pegasus Project`, Sanjay Raut said the Opposition has asked for Joint Parliamentary Committee and Supreme Court`s intervention.

"The opposition has asked for Joint Parliamentary Committee and Supreme Court`s intervention. If Ravi Shankar Prasad was in opposition, he would`ve demanded the same. Let the truth come out. If there is nothing, why are you scared?," said Sanjay Raut.
