Bihar elections have stolen a march over Covid. Whether it is morally, ethically or legally sound, the announcement of free vaccine to voters of Bihar is a sensational disclosure.
Politicians worry only about power. The way rallies are conducted with no social distancing, no wearing of masks and no crowd restrictions at meetings is definitely food for thought.
The SOPs are in place for functions be it religious or otherwise. But the carnival of elections is providing much needed relief for people to enjoy in this pandemic.
If festival in Kerala had led to spike in Corona cases, what will be situation in Bihar post elections?
Free vaccine for Bihar instead of priority to those States where the Corona has spiked or to those in frontline on war on Corona makes no sense.
Just promise of vaccine in Bihar, when drinking water, education, employment, housing have not touched the lives in Bihar for 30 years and more exposes the madness of politicians to remain in power.
