The Stories of misery and helplessness about the deadly virus has taken over all debates and talks starting from our morning tea to the end of our day. It is a matter of fact that Covid 19 is currently the most influential factor of our daily life. The time we are all going through has been vulnerable and all we can really do is keep our hopes strong enough to generate enough mental strength so that we can ensure the safety of our loved ones.
Apart from all the strengths that we yearn to gather, one question is inevitably capturing each and every corner of our thinking field of view, WHO SHOULD WE BLAME FOR THE CAUSE? Is that our negligence towards the recapitulation of the virus in the form of second wave, or is it lack of proper arrangements made by the concerned authorities at their respective levels? Answering such a question needs to be done with a piece of mind and not the overflowing of sorrowful emotions that guide our mind into pseudo thoughtfulness. But, one thing is for sure that it is not a one man play. It has been equipped with failure of immediate actions of our "self chosen government" and our own soft behavior towards the end of first wave of Covid 19.
Showering some light on the acts of administrative authorities would reveal that they have miserably failed in establishment of proper arrangements and targets they had set for the medical assistance and its proper circulation in the country. The first wave had clearly warned us that a huge amount of medical assistance is crucial for the survival of a covid hit nation. But, still it all seems to fade away just by falling upon the deaf ears of our central and respective state governments. India was one of the leading producers of liquid oxygen, then why are we so deficient of this resource in its most significant application? These authorities are answerable to each and every member of a family who has lost their loved ones in this wave, and regardless of whatever arguments they give, they cannot bring them back. The Diplomacy carried along with high hypocritic minds in the administration has resulted in this mega failure and this cannot be denied. If we transparently assess the situation, the center has been unanswerable for a long time. They were muted when people asked them about PM Cares Fund, and they freely demolished the supreme rights of Right to Information (RTI) in this respect. They have just kept paid magicians that are responsible for generating blind faith for them among the people, and it is very disheartening for us to admit that these paid servants are none but our politicians themselves. Another unanswerable but shameful acts by these diplomats has been regarding "BENGAL ELECTIONS". The holding of elections is clearly a significant proof that government cannot afford to postpone elections, but in fact, ignore the corona scare stretching its paws around the depths of the nation. Had they invested their capital and time upon infrastructural advances in medical sector in order to have proper medication and beds, this country wouldn't have faced this disgraceful time.
Another idea that refuses to leave our subconscious brain is proper vaccination drive in the country. The cargo flights carrying vaccines around the globe from India and perpetual bulletins of less availability of vaccines in our own country is not easy to digest. How can our health officials be so irresponsoble to let such a situation create a disgrace on an ongoing vulnerable situation in the country!
Covid 19 is symbolising the limitations of the most developed species on the planet and infact gave us enough opportunities to recover as well. It's high time we start picking up such clues from the nature and show a collective and responsible approach to this global pandemic. It's upon us to decide whether we strive at present to secure our future or sit back and let an invisible foe fade our smiles.
