25 March 2020 There are times when one has to read out the riot act to people, such times are now, as is being done by Italy’s public officials from Mayors to Ministers, reiterating their decrees for lock down. Of course, no National Disaster Drill at any level can prepare you for the times of […]
https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/685d0ace521648f8a5beeeee1b9125cd 23 March 2020 Across the Atlantic and in the Indian Ocean, we have a situation of parallels. The leaders are unwillingly to gain the trust of their population by offering information! The public in both India and USA were largely in the dark, or were distanced by the events unfolding in the Pacific Rim, […]
22 March 2020 We know that SARS CoV2 has a 90 day march to conquer the herd, virologists theorise that herd immunity and further infection containment happens when 70% of the population is infected. Now India, like European countries and USA has not enforced any ‘lock down’ in the initial 30 days of index cases […]
22 March 2020 There it was delivered in an uncharacteristically sombre, almost held back manner, a speech which I heard live, because I wanted to see whether India’s paramount ruler understood what was before us as a global and local scenario. I am glad that I did. On 20 March, Israeli PM and his wife […]
19 March 2020 #PMModi’sAddress #India’sFightBackAgainstCoronavirus #CoronavirusIndia Three years from now, we will be able to take stock of what has been swirling and like a python eager over her prey, coiling ever tighter in her embrace, this neocoronavirus, scientifically labelled as SARS CoV2 and officially named as Covid19 infection. Right now we are too much […]
17 March 2020 #ChallengesToDemocracy For some time now, a few have noticed a pattern between the RSS-BJP combine and the way the Neo Republicans have been functioning. I am impressed by a Democrat writing about ‘UnTrumping’ America,(https://www.amazon.com/Trumping-America-Plan-Democracy-Again/dp/1538733552) and would expect some one eminently suited for it like Shashi Tharoor MP to take up writing a […]
14 March 2020 #IdesOfMarch #Covid19 #CoronaPandemic No one knows for sure, but historical assumption does not rule out the role disease of epidemic nature from altering the course of nation states and awarded them premature end to their run or pedestal to start a home run from. In modern times that we live in, many […]
12 March 2020 Irony could have blushed with how we use the term ‘Viral’ these days and completely lost it when confronted with an actual virus! Remember how much of January and February of 2020 was European and American grand standing, trying to put down China as she struggled with the Covid-19 contagion from Wuhan? […]
11 March 2020 Since the Shah-Modi team are fond of spectacle, we saw the carefully orchestrated drama on Holi of Mr Jyotiraditya Scindia finally leave the INC by resigning his primary membership of the party in a letter addressed to interim President Ms Sonia Gandhi dated 9 March but delivered on the 10th. If this […]
8 March 2020 In memory, we have never been so extensively documented as a social network since this advent of internet of things and social media. One of the biggest plusses of this advent has been how mainstream media can place us no longer in peril, can even list and plunge head-on like the Titanic […]
