Coronavirus or Covid-19 is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It is a viral disease that turned into a pandemic in early 2020. The first known case was recorded in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. Coronavirus has multiple variants such as Delta and Omicron, and its most common symptoms are fever, chills and sore throat.
The virus spreads through liquid particles when the infected person coughs, sneezes or breathes – it has a high multiplication rate. Therefore, the world had taken measures to quarantine or isolate those infected. While the disease can be mild and recoverable, those older or with underlying medical conditions are more likely to be adversely affected. The disease caused according to WHO estimates 3 million deaths in 2020.
All tragically true. So hard to understand how blind emotion trumps facts and common sense every time.
Modi faces no political cost not because what he is, but, because what political opposition is.
Will someone give the author a tight slap on my behalf?
You are fake news…!!
and all the time try to Sell you Chinese propaganda, but unfortunately Indian are understand that.
So try something new.
Views are personal.???
What is the columnist smoking, I would love to borrow some of it.
Namakharamis and anti-nationals will never be satisfied with the gigantic task done 24/7 by Modi and team. They are always looking for perfect perfection and cloudy, non-existing heavenly situations.
What have you been smoking? And if 6 out of every 10 urban India. Has lost their jobs, how on earth do you have yours??
There is nothing in this article other than unfettered hate for the Prime minister. Of late it has become usual for the so called Indian intelligentsia to post articles like these – devoid of truth and reeking of fatuity, in an effort to undermine the genuine efforts of the central government.
One thing to notice, the workers might lost their jobs but not lives. If there was no lockdown then they might get affected from Covid-19 and would have lost their lives. Stop publishing stupid news.
Is he not biased? He is able to see only the short comings? Is there nothing good in Modi? Is he as visionless or visionful as Rahul? Or is he just jealous of Modi? Or is he just Hindu hater?
Everyone knows there is a problem. Central Government does it’s Job, there is also a lots for state government to do now. Why media never talks about states – their failures & successes. For example, states have much higher responsibility in the current migrant issue, but everyone is behind central government.
Please stop this hate spread news and anti india newses. Being a media try to publish the news that is worth knowing.
In india only modi is responsible fo everything…..heath infrastrure is week…. Modi is responsible….. What about non modi states…. What about congress 70 years….. Labour crisis ….. What about mumbai , delhi , and Punjab governments they does not hold accountable…… Accutually the problem in liberals and Islamist…… They only want modi down…. That’s why public is deaf .
Azim Ali, name says it all. The Muslims in India, it appears have formed an union with assistance from seculars, presstitutes and the opposition parties to discredit India, in general and Modi in particular. You make it sound as if Modi imported this crisis to India. A concerted efforts by muslims all over India to cover up the wrong doings of tablighi jamaatis and make them look innocent. The entire opposition is hand in glove with these muslims to paint their community white . W H H did you muslims stay back in India even after you guys got your pakistan? Look at the mess you guys have created in my country.
Very well articulated and thought through…
The more we invest our faith in false Gods, the more difficult it will be disengage even when the world around us crumbles.
And the worse will be the withdrawal symptoms as we stubbornly hold on to the Messiah who has promised us the salvation through the great Revivalist Rashtra!! Tough times indeed ahead
“Suffering He causes”? Did Modi bring the pandemic or The Print’s ideologues across the border? Get your facts right before ranting against modi.
The compararion is quite unfair..first and foremost, Modi is an elected leader whilst Khamenei is not…modi is accountable to the people of India whilst the Iranian regime ensures that Khamenei is answerable to none
Very good article, glad someone wrote this.
What should we call out Modi for? The real culprit is your master Chai-na! Do you guys have the guts to call ping pong Jinping out?
Modi faces no political costs for suffering he causes.
Only because he is not a religious fanatic like Ali Khamenei who reduced women to half a human being after he came to power, the repression under the Revolutionary Guards is not known to the world because the well looked after media.
Despite the alleged spectacular failure to address a migrant crisis festering for over two months, astonishingly there seems to be no anger with Modi, who seems as popular as ever.
DO NOT THINK THE MIGRANTS ARE STUPID, THEy KNOW EXACTLY WHO WERE THE BENEFICIARIES OF MAKING THEM MIGRANTS and WHO IS TRYING TO HELP THEM OUT OF THE SITUATION,
Half of Indian households have reduced their number of meals since the lock down.
Please don’t write so big articles…it was more like reading a novel…had to leave reading mid way.
Please do not compare Modi with Jesus. Jesus can save Modi but Modi or any person cannot save any person from eternal damnation. Jesus is coming soon.
You leftists are so excited!
What else one can expect from you
Good article…
This is not an article. This is frustration. Modi may not have handled situation perfectly but it is more than satisfactory. A country with 1.3 B population, majority of them are poor, unconscious, not serious in obeying law and order, poor healthcare system, lazy executives can’t be handled better than this. Adjectives i used is not to show any disrespect to my fellow citizens but it is reality. Advantage that oppositions have is they are not in power!
Talk about your false prophet of desert land who raped 6 year old girl.
A life span of 120 years is a possibility now. Recent advances in stem cell therapy coupled with a diet on low carbs, pranayama to strengthen and renew the lung muscles will enable even an average person to achieve the life expectancy of 100 years. Given the author’s well argued impregnabilty of Modi’s hold over the Indian voters whose average IQ is 82 we need to reconcile to the reality of another 20 years plus rule of Modi. He does rigorous yoga in his well manicured garden, does regular fasting and a ruthless disposition towards holding on to power. So even if half of India’s population gets decimated by his policies he will be the monarch of all he surveys.
Southern India is an irritant and he will take care them soon.
The writer is more or less on the side of rational argument. This is a wrecthed country where religion has made billionnairs out of uneducated, street smart politicians. It is a country where resources would always be gobbled up an ever expanding population, where politics will remain largely a family owned business. Where angst would always rule and the sensible would leave if they can afford it. In the meanwhile we should also salute the millions who have made a good life for them notwithstanding the quality of government.
media outlets like the print ,should be banned with immediate effect, for the kind of hatret to unleash against India, comparing india pm to iranian leader for all wrong and fake reasons is in itself reason enough for you to be banned. you are nothing but a mouthpiece of congree and left psuedo liberals disguised as a media platform. same is evident from not only this post but alomst all your articles and news.
I think Modi is the worst PM India ever had.his stupidity and religious rubbish will destroy India.imagine supporting listening to idiots who believe in drinking cow urine to solve covid 19.My goodness
These are the idiots who are governing.modi implements things without thinking of the consequences on the poor and suffering
In India Christian voices have zero credibility. Hilarious is the fact that Christians revile and fight fundamentalist Muslims all over the world but stand firm with Islam and fanatic Muslims in India. Muslims and Christians in India just cannot stomach the fact that neither rule India anymore!
Perfectly true I agree with you. Apart from what you said, in India its only Hindus who have to keep their mouth shut because if they say anything other religions get endengered. This writer is really insane. If he is talking about CAA, first do all research and try to understand the perspective. I think the writer is some sadak chap moron who finds expression in such stupid newspapers.
The only reason is because what u mentioned here is a BIG lie… Yes it’s true some lost jobs and we are struggling.. but don’t show as if it’s a failed govt… Loosers… Get some true news…guys…plz be mature in reporting….
तुझ से पहले जो इक शख़्स यहाँ तख़त नशीन था
उसको भी अपने ख़ुदा होने का इतना ही यक़ीन था
If a person is not sympathetic to the suffering of his country men, he will suffer the most in the long run .
This pose of Mr.Modi reminds of crucified Jesus or Mr Rahul Gandhi while campaigning or Freddie Mercury in ‘I want to break free’or Shakira in Whenever wherever (that is the deal my dear)which is being imitated by many liberated souls.May Christ bless them!
OK, Tell me which model Modi should have followed? Italy or USA or Singapore or China for a Large Country like India? Which country was successful in controlling this COVID? Please dont have blind hatred for Modi. Do you think some other leader would have handled this better? What are your solutions
It seems that the author is more disappointed about Modi not losing his popularity than the crisis which people face. Many of Modi haters hope against hope in every single crisis and in every single opportunity a downfall of a man that they so much hate. That is their true intention here.
We love the stoned looks , pathalogical haters like you give. Here is the fact – people of India love Modi. Is he perfect – hell no. Is he the best – hell yes. Are you guys relevant – Absolutely No.
Pathalogical haters like you pick up a topic , gyrate over it till you find another one. First was beef , then intolerance , them Rafaele , then demonitization then CAA and now Migrants. People of India saw through the malicious intent and pushed you folks to a corner.
We love Modi. We will continue to be. You call us Bhakts, we have no problem. And in case you are even interested, the migrants problem is real and the State and Central Gov are equally responsible for their well being. Singling out the central is just a narration that suits your perveted agenda. You don’t care for the migrants – you never did. You are just using this and milking the tragedy.
Great response…
While reading the above article everything seemed pretty correct but after reading the comments beneath it made me hesitant to approve it. I never faced this sort of confusion before. But the ultimate truth is , I am there only where I was years before. Amen
I think if print doesn’t able to differentiate between hate speech and freedom of expression. It should close its website. From now I will not read and even unsubscribe print from my phone. Because it is allowed asshole to write anything.
Abrahamic Religions truly corrupt your mind.
If he doesn’t face any political costs, it must be well acceptable to ‘all’ public. In which case this article is slander or is totally skewed.
This is nothing but the outpourings of visceral hatred towards Modi .In hindsight everybody is clever.Immediately after Demonetisation many prominent Economists including former President Pranab Mukherji welcomed it.Modi won a huge electoral victory in the aftermath of Demonetisation.Same goes for GST.The comparison with the the Iranian religious leader is indeed odius.Ever since he became Prime Minister,he has never been communally partisan.In ffact a large share of benefits like Bijli,free Gas Cylinder,P.M.Awas Yojana ,subsidised household toilets,minority scholarships have all accrued to minorities in larger shares than their population proportion.The author might like to verify these facts from authoritative Statistics.The Author assumes that the Indian people are gullible enough to fall for so-called Messiahs.The Author should make costructive criticism of policies rather than indulging in personal vendetta..While the Central Govt. should have anticipated the migrant problem and to that extent at fault,a major share for this debacle rests on the States.Afterall the State of Kerala managed the problem with least inconvenience.
I THINK MODI MISUSING EVM MACHINES TO WIN ELECTION OTHERWISE IT IS DIFFICULT TO WIN EVERY ELECTION WITH LIES ? EVERYBODY KNOWS HE SPEAK LIES ? EVM MACHINE IS READY WITH ELECETION COMMISSION SUPPORT. THAT IS WHY NOT CARING ANY MIGRANT OR ANY ISSUES ?
Author is a Muslim. Muslims are not supposed to live in India.
This Op-ed is mostly crap and somewhat right . Right parts – Invincibility of Modi despite botched up policies; crafting of an image of “fakir” and the practice of delivering a speech. But the rest part is superficial and nonsensical. PM Modi has orchestrated and choreographed an image which is based on his rags to riches story which everyone likes and millions of Indians actually want to tread that path and the rest is “Brand Management”. Author forgot that millions of Indians staunchly felt that PM Modi had good intentions during Demonetisation and the whole 2019 election was fought on a National Security idea and BJP-RSS ensured that this works and also he forgets what an astute politician Mr. Modi is . Secondly, Author forgot the role of opposition which is non-existent even now; If tables would have turned, BJP/RSS would have created a brouhaha and a fervour over the current situation. Lastly, Author forgot the role played by Media and so-called Opinion Makers in ensuring this superficial image remains intact.
There are more reasons but let’s limit ourselves to these many.
What India lacks is strong opposition which can obliterate the shining armour, and when she will get one, another “Messiah” will bite the dust.
Looks like we were unnecessarily blaming Rahul Gandhi for being an incompetent politician. How could anybody have won against “God/Messiah”? Hopefully supreme leader “Ayatollah” will not lead us down the path to becoming another Iran is all I can pray to the real God for.
Article is nothing but representation of personal/ religious hate by the author. Not worth reading.
This article offends Hindu religion and culture.
It is the right of every Muslim to abuse other religions. This gives them bonus points to secure their ticket to heaven.
The author needs to consult the best psychiatrist from India and if not from States then.
Tue Author just needs the appreciation for this writing from Godi Media and Bhakts. Well, the entire nation knows what and how we are suffering….
Librandus are insane people. They think they can turn lies into truth. They think they can band laws of physics in their hate propaganda against Modi. They think all people except them are fool and they can make people believe their lies bombarded continuously. Why should these librandus even exist in the world of peace loving people.
Who is paying for Anti Modi is it the Print/author by whom. As usual congrass/so called Sickularists
Even if all librandus commit suicide enmass, no Modi supporter would bother.
Comparing Ayathuallah Ali Khamenei with PM Modi is totally wrong. Go and check iran progress under his leadership for the last 2 to 3 decades and inspite of so many sanctions Iran has survived and made progress in almost every fields. Iran is the Only country to stand against Super powers…Before writing an article pls do some genuine research . Just dont write for the sake of doing it to get your pay checks.
Sorry as a non Indian I don’t understand the sensitivities of the India society. Are you objecting to the comparison because you think Modi is so much inferior to Khamenei OR vise versa?
