I am unable to under why the government has not deployed Senior wing NCC cadets and Civil defense personnel who are even deployed when we faced war in 1965, 1971.
Instead, the honourable Minister should have a plaque on his table that reads, The buck stops here. I had expected him to be a fine blend of Governor Cuomo and Dr Fauci.
Yes government did commendable job on multiple fronts but across board consensus is something that is missing. For eg WB govt didn’t fall in line, Delhi had to be hand managed by Amit Shah.
Then lack of rehabilitation centers is glaring. People with money are not getting beds when needed. Many states are reporting positivity with a great amount of delay, which is not good.
Door to door testing could have been done before unlock but it couldn’t be achieved.
The victory in this initial battle will depend on daily strengthening medical infrastructure, not petty politics
