At ThePrint’s digital Off The Cuff, BMC Commissioner Praveen Pardeshi spoke in detail about how Mumbai is tackling the Covid-19 pandemic, including in Dharavi.

Forget comparing it with classics like Hrithik’s Ek Pal Ka Jeena or the slick title track of Dhoom 2, Janaab-e-Aali does not even come close to Ghungroo.

Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
Death of comorbidity is the main reason behind it. If it were there, people could have a chance to die at least by diarrhea. The expert committee must be revived and all death cases should be examined and examined and examined at least for 10 years — these are the preconditions of bringing back the covid death. And no doctor should have any right to say anything about death.
There are illegal immigrants mostly from Bangladesh who are staying here in particular kalimpong district illegally. there are many cases but NOT shown in numbers because it the cause of death is revealed then,they even have to show their nationality!!! this is why… numbers are wrong. I hope modi ji would address this issue and take necessary actions!!!!!
Come on and get alerted, people of Bengal, it is time to retrospect yourself for your present condition, your state gave the intelligent and patriotic personalities to the nation, now it is the time to select and elect the patriotic leader for your development and for a bright future.

How can Mamatadi show the numbers as there is a huge numbers of illegal immigrants are staying in West Bengal. If a death occurs of the illegals , she has to show the nationality of the deceased. So no report of death, no death certificate & no questions will be asked.
CAN ANYONE PLEASE FILE A CRIMINAL CASE IN THE CALCUTTA HIGH COURT FOR CULPABLE HOMICIDE NOT AMOUNTING TO MURDER FOR WILLFUL NEGLIGENCE AND DISREGARD TO CENTRAL GUIDELINES AGAINST COVID-19, LOCKDOWN AND NON-REPORTING MEDICAL CONDITIONS. Along with the CM, show-cause the Principal Secretary of WB who submitted his backbone to the illiterate cadres of the party.
Every catastrophe offers some vicious opportunities to some morbid leaders who find dividends by grabbing rations meant for poor out of which some is distributed to their own lot, by supplying poor quality food fudging with quantity at exorbitant prices, Didi has put in place new syndicate at works.
It is mind boggling to observe the way Corona cases are being handled. It is clear that TJ have become carriers of this deadly virus knowingly or unknowingly and if these facts are revealed in public domain, Didi may lose non muslim votebank hence, all the secrecy. However, public already know this fact and presence of TJ in bengal and how they are spreading it. Didi may snatch few voters by distributing ration to BJP voters on condition of changing sides but lose hugely if Corona bubble bursts in bengal. It’d be impossible to put blame on centre. First, CAA & now Corona, her core votebank has created fear among bhadra bengali manush which may bring her fall so it would be politically wise for Didi to tie all loose knots and act fast.
Mamtaj govt should immediately be terminated and central rule imposed in west bengal for quick recovery from covid 19. Else the whole state will get infected soon.
Can the department update the number 57, which is now 2 days old. This will help the CITIZENS of West Bengal in understanding the ground realty and take self precautionary measures.
Mamata Banerjee and her cronies are an absolute disgrace to this country. Deception, deception and deception. Unfortunately, the stupid Bengali community in west Bengal keep supporting the lady.
I know that CPM brought Bengal to the drain, Mamata Banerjee is completing the task by flushing West Bengal down the drain.
Rest in peace state of West Bengal
Would request you to place your sincere comments on CORONAVIRUS KOLKATA Facebook column.. tks
This is clear case of under reporting as I have pointed out earlier.
WB govt is intentionally hiding the figures and not testing enough hotspots of pieceful community.
I will not be surprised if West Bengal takes the lead in no of cases and deaths in a month putting behind Maharashtra a distant second.
You should know by know what I am drifting towards but can’t stop myself from stating a fact.
Pieceful community transmission will wreak havoc in West Bengal if appeasement politics is followed because of political correctness.
Didi’s short sightedness will result in large no of deaths but she need not worry as pieceful community would still vote for her en masses following the age old tradition.
There is no difference between Chinese government & Mumtaj government.
Hiding truth to maximum extents
57 deaths in 514 cases means more than 10% fatality rate. Three times higher compared to any other states. It does also proof that the health facilities in West Bengal is a showpiece & fragile, it can’t even handle 514 cases properly
Nothing 2 say but god help us from our cm Mamta banerjee
From the articles by Madhuparna Das,it is apparent that elements of comorbidity also infest areas beyond the dead bodies of those declared dead so far.
There is something very fishy and strange-as if that State which has the minimal Corona infections/deaths will have its CM or Chief Secy be rewarded with the Bharat Ratna or some such award.
Bengalis will be happy seeing such happen. We are all suffering from live comorbidity by the entertainment provided by the powers that be, including the Governor. We do not know what is happening except that something vicious and dangerous is about to grip our lives, much after most other States would have been rewarded fro their efforts to contain or enhance their Corona Infections.
We are a tragic race since the passage of Dr BC Roy. Even Dr. Pranab Mukherjee did more for himself and the rest of India than Bengal. Jyotis became Buddhas and now are oozing of mamatas.
We are an unluckier race than others in India. Our leaders have had their priorities different, their trajectories reinvented on unique definitions of community betterment. Only Dadas and Didis can save us with their wisdom, if they have any left; unless a disciple of Ramakrishna Parahamsha or Swami Vivekananda does something more…..
WHY MAMATAJI HIDING COVID DEATH ? WHAT SHE TELLING VERY FALSE A COVID 19 PATIENT WHEN HE/SHE DIES DUE TO VIRIOUS SOME ORGAN MUST DAMAGE AND IT IS DUE TO VIROUS ATTACK DO NOT IT? SHE OPPOSES THE CRIME BY NIJAMUDDIN
SHE SHAVED AS NO EMERGENCY IN INGIA DECLARED [ NIJAMUDDIN TRIED TO SPREAD COVID 19 -IE AN ATTACK BY VIROUSE
AND PARTLY SUCCESSFUL-IT WAS A TERRORIST TYPE OF ATTACK]

There you go. We have our own version of Xi Jinping covering up the deaths. Dark days ahead. May God bless West Bengal !!!
Everybody knew that WB government was fudging the death numbers.
Shame.
