COVID has disrupted the world unfathomably & it is clear not a single nation had a crisis mitigation plan, wish countries act now and put a crisis response strategy in place because clearly this pandemic wasn’t the first and won’t be the last.
Rising inequality & un-Fairness of the capitalist system seems to be igniting a global revolution making those deep cracks in our society more visible. what could have been an opportunity for all of us to come together & build a better world is being leveraged by some of the biggest companies & national leaders as an opportunity to only fill their coffers.
Instead of standing in solidarity, reaching out to the most affected & helping during this pandemic, Electric utility companies such as #Adani #Tata & others rained woes by sending inflated utility bills. Hospitals such as Nanavati & others were caught making inflated bills, private hospitals are fleecing people with COVID packages, Hospitals & COVID testing centers nefarious nexus has come to the fore, chemist shops who claim they are out of stock for the COVID Drug Remdesivir are selling it un-officially 10* the actual rate.
The Economic Engine Run’s because of two basic rules, Production & Consumption. Both have come to a halt because of the #lockdown, instead of helping the banking industry is giving a carrot in the form of loans to the already burdened MSMEs, Middle-Class Citizens.
It will take an entire page to explain how badly the Moratorium is tilted in favor of the banking industry, the Supreme Court yesterday filed a relief petition making the #government accountable for the lockdown and it's wide-scale impact.
Instead of help, we have got a joke in the name of The “Atmanirbhar Bharat Stimulus Package” for Context regarding my above statement on the stimulus package…..please read on
News Website suggests Indian National Congress Scam amounts to Rs 48,20,69,00,00,000 in 70 years of its reign. Just the Goa Mining Scam by the Incumbent Party BJP is estimated at 20 Billion USD.
pls see the link below for detailed BJP Scam pointed out by the opposition party.
We are taxed by our government for every little thing. FY 2018-19 the Governments Gross Tax Collection was above 20 Lakh Crore. And when the time came for the Govt to give back the money which belonged to we the people of this country, our Govt decided to play an April fools prank on us.
Let me present the facts, first of all, there is no 21 lakh crore stimulus package, it is just 1.5 lack crore or 80,000 crores from the Govt Cash Flow to be precise and NO you will never see a single penny of that money, not you who is jobless impacted by COVID , not you who has COVID but no money for treatment, neither the low, middle class or the Small, micro & medium enterprise who are living in constant uncertainty.
The Atmanirbhar Stimulus package is only for the banking Industry & big companies, what the rest of us are getting is money in the form of loan or extension of credit.
I do not support any political party and stand for science, technology, creativity & human ingenuity. if you like me are sick & tired of the current state of affairs than stop complaining, do not expect divine intervention or our Government Servants to solve those problems.
Like the Great Mahatma Gandhi Said…..If you Desire CHANGE…..Then Be the Change

4 年I think it may not be the right approach to bring everything to the government. I definitely hold the government responsible for may issues. COVID has hit everyone, everyone has been trying to come out of the impact by COVID. At the moment we do not know that there would not have been lockdown what would have been financial situations - better or worse - it is difficult to say bcs this developing, dependent and connected world seeing this much big impact worldwide for the first time. The hospitals mentioned in your post are less than 0.01% of all hospitals helping people in India including governments, NGOs, and others. In case of taxes, this was not the time for the government to give us back our taxes, we have been already consuming our taxes in the form of facilities, public places, security, law, administration, etc. these are the things which have enabled everyone to grow. In my city - Surat, I see the government helping everyone, When I came back from Indonesia to surat in late march, and I complained about some health issues, I was getting more than 5 calls every day. Surat municipal corporation was ready with an app to track COVID patients even before beginning of lockdown. my municipal corporation facilitated me with almost every possible way, they also arranged a pick and drop facility for COVID patients to and from hospitals when the lockdown was imposed. they helped the laborers every possible way, there have been issues but got resolved. I was very much happy seeing the activeness of SMC and their willingness to help people. Few of the things I would agree, the central government should be held responsible for is - 1. Not have strategic teams to plan and generate appropriate advisory for MSMEs. 2. Slow developments in policies to tackle and manage pandemic 3. overlooking the lower middle class for their no savings and regular unavoidable expenses. Many state governments including some ruled by BJP have performed the worst as well.
