QUESTION: Dead bodies are piling up in cremation grounds all over India. We had the Covid-19 vaccine available on hand, but failed to use it for our own people. Are the leaders of the country losing love and respect for man?

ANSWER: Mother India has been a shining star in the global horizon for many decades thanks to her great sons like Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. But now, the piling up of dead bodies has dimmed its light. It is saddening to note that in the recent years she has slowly been getting paralyzed. The world sees her remaining deaf to the desperate cry of millions of aggrieved farmers and refusing to tell the truth. Amidst Covid-19 pandemic, the head of the nation remains frozen while the body is struggling to remain alive. The nation hangs its head in shame as the world watches bodies of its poor and downtrodden queue up for the last rites. Those to whom people had entrusted their lives have betrayed them. Who is there to save our motherland from a dra-gon that is devouring her people! Our only hope is in passionate and compassionate hearts that always rise to the occasion. They will surely come to our salvation.
