The alarming rate of Covid-19 cases reported in Goa and the whole country is very disturbing. The PM's address to the nation, in the wake of second wave cannot stop the Covid-19 surge as when the cases were rising our PM and Home minister were addressing rallies and roadshows in poll-bound states.
The night curfew will have no impact on the spreading Covid-19 cases as during day time there will be free movement on the roads and markets and supermarkets and during the night there is hardly any crowd except on beaches , clubs, casinos and bars. This curfew should have been imposed much earlier we would have not have had so many cases per day.
Even when the curfew is imposed by the government, allowing the elections of municipalities to go on as per schedule was suicidal and clearly shows that the government is more interested in holding elections and not trying to prevent the virus from spreading . It raises pertinent question as to why the elections cannot be postponed since the government has already postponed the Goa board exams of standard X and XII.
