He didn't miss out to remember and pay his tribute to all the party workers who contacted COVID-19 while working for the party and succumbed to it. Remembering their determination and perseverance, he said, "While lakhs of workers made an invaluable contribution in the successful completion of the voting. During this, some people also came under the grip of Coronavirus and some died untimely. The government pays deep condolences to their families. Along with giving financial help to their dependents, the government will also provide a job to the member."
