BJP workers and leaders have been carrying out relief work amid the coronavirus pandemic, while the opposition parties have gone into quarantine, he said.

Nadda said party workers in one lakh villages and hamlets are serving the needy to mark the occasion.

Targeting the opposition parties, Nadda said those making a noise about COVID-19 vaccine now are the ones who earlier raised doubts about the jabs.

BJP workers is observing the anniversary as "Seva Diwas". In view of the COVID-19 pandemic, the BJP has decided not to celebrate the seventh anniversary of its government at the Centre, but instead organise relief works across the country.
