In a tweet, Patil said the Congress wanted to "damage the social fabric of the nation" with this toolkit at a time when it is battling the Covid-19 pandemic.

He also accused the Congress of blocking beds through its workers amid the outbreak to strategically release them after tweets of help are put out.
