Now that covid cases are coming closer than ever for all of us, I really cannot think enough of the monumental efforts this government has put up in fighting the same. A journey of the central government& #39;s enormous handling of the pandemic in the country.
The much maligned and publicly ridiculed opposition of the chief, whom more than half the country considers a dimwit, warned us about the impending disaster on 12 Feb 2020.

13 March 2020 was the last day I worked from office in Mumbai. There was already panic in the air. Concerns were voiced. Covid 19 entered our lingo, Tablighi Jamat is just getting done with its annual affair & this is what the Ministry of Health had said. https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/coronavirus-outbreak-union-health-ministry-press-conference-in-new-delhi/article31061163.ece">https://www.thehindu.com/news/nati...
18 March 2020. The country is in a sombre mode. Everyone is looking up to the govt for further instructions. Parliament is working because MP govt is to be toppled. TMC MPs who wore a mask, were instructed by V Naidu to take them off & not spread panic. https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/masks-debut-in-rs-mps-demand-curtailing-of-budget-session/article31097988.ece">https://www.thehindu.com/news/nati...
19 March 2020, the cult "Janta curfew" is announced by the PM. Virus chain was to be broken. Pseudo science peddled writ large. India was to be free of Covid come 22nd. It was the usual masterstroke by the genius PM. We were winning against Covid and how. https://twitter.com/narendramodi/status/1240678191116595202?lang=en">https://twitter.com/narendram...
22nd March 2020 did not eradicate Covid but it did clear out any fears about EVMs. The country followed the instructions to the dot. 5 PM everyone banged utensils and clapped. Then they burst crackers, did garba, bhangra and celebrated being Covid free. https://www.arre.co.in/coronavirus/janata-curfew-gone-wrong-garba-bhangra-street-dancing-is-a-recipe-for-covid-19-disaster/">https://www.arre.co.in/coronavir...
You would really expect Union ministers to give their best in times of unprecedented crisis. They tried. At least one of them did with utmost sincerity.

It has been 5 days since the last masterstroke. When demonetisation happened, I thought it was his worst prank. After 24 March 2020, I& #39;ve started looking fondly towards demonetisation.

My grandparents often spoke about the partition & migration. We always heard stories. Could only imagine how bad it could be

I want to pause and spend some more time to the workers who were robbed off life, livelihood and personal dignity. One of the biggest criminal abdication done by a modern state anywhere in the world. In middle of a pandemic. The visuals still haunt me. https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/16-migrant-workers-run-over-by-goods-train-near-aurangabad-in-maharashtra/article31531352.ece">https://www.thehindu.com/news/nati...

While our PM never had the courage or shame to face any press conference, his minions in Health Ministry have now started peddling convenient stats to cover up the monumental disaster.
90%+ recovery rates, low death rates, low serious infection rates. https://thewire.in/health/covid-19-briefing-health-ministry-india-fatality-rate">https://thewire.in/health/co...

Meanwhile, the pseudo science is peddling even faster than the virus. Chyawanprash to cure covid. Red ant chutney as a cure. Gaumutra as a cure. Anything & everything as a cure. Worst comes from the elite businessmen in Balakrishnan and Ramdev. Jackpot. https://www.thehindu.com/business/Industry/coronavirus-coronil-demand-at-many-lakh-packs-a-day-says-baba-ramdev/article32282831.ece">https://www.thehindu.com/business/...
Okay, you might say it is what a private businessman did like what all capitalists do. What is the govt& #39;s fault in that? Well, the union health ministers and others from cabinet actually launched the "WHO certified" covid medicine by our hero Ramdevesier. https://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-baba-ramdev-releases-research-papers-on-evidence-based-covid-19-drug-coronil-patanjali-2876351">https://www.dnaindia.com/india/rep...

People haven& #39;t stopped dying. Virus is still raging. Low fatality rate is peddled around as a medal. Theory that inherent immunity of Indians is shared all around. Vaccines are arriving. We have won.

The year is about to end. Annual awards are pouring in. No one is contesting for the fraud of the year award. If the Professor in money heist thought he pulled off the impossible through meticulous planning and insane execution, he should rethink. https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/coronavirus-pm-cares-is-not-a-public-authority-under-rti-act-pmo/article31712146.ece">https://www.thehindu.com/news/nati...
It has been a sombre year. We lost family, friends, lovers, acquaintances, co-workers, neighbours, livelihood, dignity & @irrfank.
The govt? Using brute majoritarian force in the parliament to push down laws like the farm bills? Overriding due procedure. https://thewire.in/politics/farm-bills-rajya-sabha-legislative-scrutiny">https://thewire.in/politics/...

The vaccines are here. Now from %age stats, we have moved to absolute numbers in terms of population vaccinated. Vaccine is shown as personally researched, developed and administered by the PM. The euphoria is running over rising inflation & obvious gloom. https://twitter.com/narendramodi/status/1366200664402006016">https://twitter.com/narendram...
The govt which had so far talked about self reliance, boasted its vaccine manufacturing capacity - suddenly shifts as a global saviour by supplying twice the vaccines abroad than it administered at home

That leads us to a current shortage of the vaccine in a country which is now the ground 0 for global infections.

The first govt intervention at the onset of the pandemic was to topple the MP govt. Rajasthan was attempted in between & even the recent-most attempt has been to topple the Maharashtra govt. From SSR to Deepika to Sachin Vaze. https://frontline.thehindu.com/the-nation/high-voltage-drama-rocks-maha-vikas-aghadi-govt-in-maharashtra-following-arrest-of-policeman-sachin-vaze-in-mukesh-ambani-bomb-scare-case/article34231208.ece">https://frontline.thehindu.com/the-natio...
There are so many questions. Why& #39;re Pfizer/Moderna/J&J/Sputnik not allowed to sell. Why did we lose guard. Why did we make an impression we won over Covid. Why was it important to lose jobs but make the Central Vista. Why rallies without masks & protocols? https://theprint.in/india/construction-of-new-parliament-building-begins-under-modi-govts-central-vista-project/585963/">https://theprint.in/india/con...
This past year, we& #39;ve lost our family, friend, lovers and people everywhere. Was all of it avoidable? No. Was a large part of it avoidable? Hell yes.
The government failed us. It criminally abdicated its responsibilities. It chose agendas and propagandas over real lives & health

Modi, Trump & Bolsonaro were the three kings of doom who ran down their country to a dumpster. Trump was voted out aptly & the US has since been on the correct side of the Covid news. Bolsonaro has faced scathing criticism?
Ask an Indian & they& #39;ll tell you Modi saved their life!
