Coffee at Starbucks is more important than than the fear of Coronavirus during lockdown 4.0 in end May 2020

6 pm at a Starbucks in Mumbai on Tuesday 2020-05-26, the scene from my car window while returning from a grocery run. Now let me get this straight :

Counted 21 people ‘hanging around’ huddled together less than an arm’s length apart.. with most without masks happily chatting across a cup of coffee.
Mumbai is the worst Corona hit city with 30,000 cases, an acute shortage of hospital beds and people dying on the street unable to get treatment in time.

Now I’m guessing a ‘person’ paying 400 bucks for coffee is not an illiterate slum dweller or a walking migrant worker dying of thirst. These are educated supposedly ‘sensible’ people.

Am I the only one thinking the situation around us is grim ? Can somebody explain to me WHAT IS GOING ON 🤷🏻‍♂️ ?

The priorities of life for these elitists in Mumbai (or anywhere in India) are so mixed up.
I can vouch that quite a few of those crowding the road devoid of the usual traffic or seen cozily sitting and sipping coffee priced at ₹400+ per cup at the signature coffee shop in upmarket Mumbai  are discussing the plight of migrant workers walking 1000 kms back home.
And all these happening on 2020-05-26, even while #lockdown 4.0 is in force and almost 7,000 people are being tested #Covid19 positive everyday, with Mumbai being the worst hit 😡

Scene at King Edward Memorial Hospital (Kem Hospital), Mumbai in end May 2020 was scary with hospital beds full and the dead lying in bed or on the floor or in the corridors.

It's the Indians in Indian Army who are helping Kolkata and West Bengal to get back to normal after Cyclone Amphan in May 2020

Salute and respect to the great organization, viz. the INDIAN ARMY. Salute to it's great people who hail from every corner of India and are recruited, trained, disciplined and bonded together to respond to any and every need of BHARATMATA.
With a ruptured ego, WB government sought the help of army post Cyclone #Amphan to bring Kolkata and West Bengal limping back to life at lightning speed.
These great people in Indian Army are INDIANS/ HINDUSTANIS/ BHARATBASHI and not Bangalis.
Indians in Indian Army always rush to aid every Indian, and not specifically Bangalis, Marathis, Malayalis, Punjabis.
They protect every INDIAN/ HINDUSTANI citizen irrespective of whether the citizen is a fish lover or a guthka lover or an idli lover or poha lover or makki ki roti lover.
They don't speak in Bangla or Marathi or Assamese while they are away from home for months at a stretch.
Nor are they given instructions in writing in Bangla.
Even while West Bengal is ravaged by the killer pandemic and the after effects of the deadly cyclone, a new irrelevant tribe of ungrateful self proclaimed intellectuals are even more active in obliquely trying to promote the narrative that Bangla speaking Bangalis could have also done what the 'gutkha-kor' Biharis or UPites or Odiyas who are the lifeline of CESC or WBSEB linesmen do or what the Malayali/ Manipuri lady nurses in private hospitals do.
The tribe of #QualifiedUneducated ('MURKH') are mainly local state government working or retired employees, who get their bloated salary/ pension cheques credited to their bank accounts without doing anything. They are not the Bengali middle-class. They project themselves as middle-class but have already acquired a lot of slush wealth stacked somewhere while behaving like 'people of the masses' intellectual commies.
With ample time at their disposal they are trying to gain relevance by drumming up sentiments of 'unemployable and lazy'  Bangalis.
Narrating 50 or 250 Bangla verses from the works of the great bards Bengal produced decades ago doesn't make people educated. It's the upbringings, exposure, modesty, inter-personal interactions, propensity to truly help which matters.
They should sniff the fresh air and acknowledge that it's important to be honest mentors of future generations. Degrees acquired through plagiarized knowledge are worth nothing more than tissues to wipe derriere. Those trash of papers don't make one a mentor.
New India is already exposing their bluffs. They will now be individually named and shamed. It will not be long before these idiots will have to run for cover to the nearest available rathole.
People or the 'non-cohesive' forces who can't identify themselves as Indians first are diabolical crooks which the country can do without!

Sabyasachi Dutta says that all disaster control equipments bought by him for Salt Lake during his era has been sold off by TMC administrators

Hear the reality of Salt Lake, post Cyclone Amphan which wreaked havoc on 2020-05-20, from none other than the erstwhile Mayor of Salt Lake (Bidhannagar Municipality), Sabyasachi Dutta till about a year ago and now with the BJP.
The Municipality is under the control of TMC, the political party in power in West Bengal.
Trees are still blocking the major thoroughfares. Parts of the satellite city adjoining Kolkata is still without power and water supply.
Dutta is heard saying that all new disaster control equipments bought by him during his era has been sold off on the sly by utterly corrupt administrators.
For the uninitiated, Salt Lake is Kolkata's dream residential locality.

15 yrs old daughter pedals 1200 kms over 7 days from Gurugram to Darbhanga, carrying her injured and jobless father as the pillion rider

Jyoti Kumari is a 15 year old girl from Bihar who carried her wounded father from GURUGRAM (Gurgaon) to their home village in DARBANGHA district (Bihar) on her bicycle covering 1200 kms over 7 days during the lockdown in May 2020.

Kicked out by his employer during the lockdown, the daughter Jyoti pedalled back home with her father riding pillion. After this crazy feat of endurance and love the Cycling Federation of India, an academy, under the aegis of Sports Authority of India, is looking into the possibility of training her to  be a world-class cyclist.

The young girl deserves the 'carrot' in 'Carrot N Stick'.

"Chop my head off" was her new rhetoric on 23rd May 2020 after she has failed miserably post Cyclone Amphan

Post Cyclone Amphan people had been without water and electricity after 75+ hrs even on Saturday, 2020-05-23. People in Kolkata and the affected districts have become very vocal after HER entire administration were caught with their pants down in terms of unpreparedness.
Amidst all that, hear her chant her rhetoric to cover up her utter failure.
In a press meet on 23rd May at her office in Nabanna, she is clearly heard asking people to 'chop off her head' in lieu of basic needs.
She went to the extent of blaming the 34 yrs of Left rule to put the blame on CESC and justify why people have to live without electricity.

Trucks carrying biscuits and bottled water flagged off from Delhi for Uttarakhand as relief material by Gandhis on 2013-06-16 yet to reach destination

On the 16th day of June 2013 there was a huge flood in Kedarnath in the Uttarakhand state causing heavy destruction and casualties. 25,000 pilgrims died in the heavy flood which continued for three consecutive days. The Congress Government didn't take any measurements to rescue the pilgrims who were trapped in Kedarnath. On the fourth day the international community came to know of the terrible disaster and the news became the headlines of international media! It was only then that the shameless Congress Government made a declaration of assistance!
But it was only a declaration, on the 18th of June Sonia Gandhi went to the United States of America for some medical treatment, and Rahul Gandhi was in Bangkok. They were informed and they returned to India on the 21st of June!
After a huge media coverage the Congress Government sent packets of biscuits and mineral water in eight trucks. All these trucks were carrying huge posters of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, and the mother and son waved flags to start off the convoy. Photos were taken and were in the front pages of print media and the news became the headlines of all national newspapers. But neither the hiring charges nor the cost of diesel were paid, so after traveling for eight days the truck drivers sold the mineral water bottles and packets of biscuits to recover their hiring charges and costs of diesel and went back! Till today nobody ever asked what happened to the biscuits and mineral water bottles sent as rations for the poor pilgrims!
Then when the corpses started putrefaction and started smelling after 15 days the local villagers started a movement in fear of spread of epidemics! The villagers themselves performed cremation of the corpses but we're afraid on seeing the shear numbers of corpses spread over large areas! Then the corpses of the Hindu pilgrims were traded, the Congress Government called a tender for the removal of the dead bodies! A company called the tender and was given the tender at the rate of ₹ 4,60,000 per removal of each of the dead bodies! A total number of 16,000 dead bodies were removed in the next three days. The Government immediately cleared the payment of ₹ 7,36,00,00,000 which is unusually fast considering the red tapism of the officials! More bodies were continuously discovered for months, then skeletons were discovered after that!
Can you guess who was the owner of the company responsible for the disposal of the bodies?
Who else except the National son in law Robert Vadra who established the company with hired choppers! The biscuits and mineral water bottles sent by the mother and son didn't reach even today!
It was the biggest trade of dead bodies in the history of the world!
Just trying to remind you about a scam,
BECAUSE HINDUS ARE FAMOUS FOR FORGETTING!

Her milch cows are saying, "M***ta Sarkar Bekaar Hai"

The 'milch cows' have understood  how they are being used only for personal gains.
Someone blurted out in no uncertain terms, "M***ta Sarkar Bekaar Hai". And that too standing in Kolkata.
Isn't that the actual truth?
Now you know who's responsible for the uncontrolled spread of Covid19 in West Bengal.
Good realization.

HER fanboys/ fangirls get hyperbole of how Bengal will never get another "leader" who can remain so "connected" to masses

During the phase of first lockdown for Covid19, fanboys / fangirls of the Bengal CM had gone into a frenzy when pictures emerged of her drawing white circles with red chalk outside vegetable markets. Those pictures were enough to send unreasoning Bengalis scared of a probable change of government in West Bengal in future, into a hyperbole of how Bengal will never get another "leader" who can remain so "connected" to masses. Soon there surfaced more WhatsApp messages with pictures of the minister standing on terraces embracing the virus, and residents of Bengal sleeping in peace. Well, we all know what conspired thereafter, including the ridiculousness of hiding actual figures and burning dead bodies secretively without informing family members.

Cut to Cyclone Amphan. She appeared on television last night to talk about the devastating effects of the cyclone in Bengal, and those same people are in a frenzy again to let the world know that they will never witness quite another "leader" like her. In all honesty, I watched her too, and did feel bad seeing her transform from a school headmaster threatening everyone of low grades in the forthcoming exams, to a timid newly-appointed teacher in an elementary school. It did hit me then as to how she must be feeling, for her to behave like that and say "Shob Dhongsho Hoye Gechhe" which meant, everything is ruined. The stormy night barely passed and there's a barrage of posts on Facebook with pictures like the one here, and messages on WhatsApp, saying things like how Bengal is all alone in this fight, that no news channels have covered the cyclone showing their indifference to Bengal, that people have done politics with her and given her no support, and whole lot of imaginary accusations. It made me check if these were true, but I found enough coverage of the cyclone on all news channels and platforms, including tweets from important government officials on the disaster. I also found out that the Home Minister of Government of India had assured both her and the Odisha CM of full support in dealing with the aftermath of the calamity, and as per the Chief of NDRF, a total of 41 NDRF teams including reserves are deployed in the two Amphan-affected states, all of which have been reviewed in a high-level meeting by the Prime Minister on Monday to take stock of the situation and review preparedness as well as briefings on evacuation plans. What else were these fanboys / fangirls expecting to be done? That all important Ministers of the Government of India along with news reporters of all channels (except Calcutta News which has been banned by the leader herself) to form a human chain along the coastline of Bengal and stop the cyclone? Is this natural or paid foolishness to expect such things?

The next thing I'm expecting to see in a week or two is, posts and news of how the Centre has extended extra help to Odisha which is why they've come back to normalcy faster than West Bengal. These people will conveniently forget that Odisha as a state is an expert in dealing with such calamities and has extra capacity in disaster resiliency and crisis response for natural or man-made disasters, and hence, they will manage to come out sooner from the aftermath of Cyclone Amphan. That is their calibre,  under the able governance of Naveen Patnaik, who is undoubtedly one of India's best Chief Ministers, who in spite of belonging to the Opposition, is not at loggerheads with the Centre for anything and everything. No one has ever asked West Bengal to not be like that. But the fact is, we are. We were like that during Communist rule, and we continue to maintain that legacy.

P.S. - Marking myself safe from the cyclone that lashed out last night, but can't be sure that I will be safe from the fanboys / fangirls I've referred to in this post. And apart from the huge losses to humans because of this Cyclone, my heart goes out to the uncountable birds who would've died last night or lost their homes, never to be considered in the death toll.

SHE doesn't want to bring back migrant Bengali migrant workers back to the state. On the contrary she is blaming the center and the CMs of other states

Calamity or no calamity, don't get carried away.
SHE  is least bothered to bring workers of West Bengal back to their home state.
In reality she just didn't want to bring back the migrant workers.
In her typical style she blamed the Government of India in New Delhi and the Chief Ministers of other states for the fiasco to hoodwink people of the state.
This was on 2020-05-19 forenoon.
She specializes in twisting her narratives to earn brownie points from gullible Bengalis and project self as extremely 'caring' and be bracketed as the #GreatestGiftOfGodToBengaliMankind.

Cyclone #AMPHAN affected people shouldn't expect much from HER. It's only a matter of time before laying the blame on the central government will start.

Mohammed Shakib is the 'quiet' and 'disciplined' milch cow who kicked the police in #Tikiapara in Howrah.

Big Basket starts selling 'jhatka' meat

We too need an undertaking that we are being sold non-halal products. The fact must be printed in bold in every invoice. 

We should also have access to such slaughter houses/ factories so that we are sure that we aren't being pacified with cursory lip services only. 

With the jhatka vs halal hotting up, Big Basket starts selling jhatka meat. 

We should demand that ALL vendors start selling Jhatka meat.

Ever since independence, the Gandha Gandhis have made this country a zoo infested with Muscleman. The Muscleman enjoyed everything in India, did nothing, got loads of money transferred to them and produced babies in hordes. Whenever their bluff was out, they played the victims card.
Plus, all along they enjoyed the tacit support of Commies and fiberandus.

Pooja Jayswal's father is another of the living and the dead who has vanished from Covid wards/ hospitals in West Bengal ever since March 2020

It's a curse to be affected by Covid-19 or any ailments as a matter of fact in West Bengal. Relatives of patients have no clues about the whereabouts of their dear ones after being admitted to hospital or after being picked up from home. Relatives are not even being informed if their dear ones are Corona positive or not. What's even worse is that mobiles have been banned in Covid hospitals/ wards. Dead bodies are being disposed off at undisclosed locations.
The accompanying video is just one out of the hundreds of such incidents/ events being reported across West Bengal every week.
Watch/ hear Pooja Jayswal, the daughter of a gentleman and residents of Amherst Street who had to get her father admitted for high fever to the Green Block of state owned Calcutta Medical College on 2019-05-12. The father is untraceable. The hospital authorities or the police are just avoiding her.
Right thinking intellectuals/ advocates and judges of High Court should immediately revoke the government order to ban mobile phones from hospitals.
And all these inhuman and heart wrenching acts are happening on the 'inspiration' of the one and only living #GreatestGiftOfGodToBengaliMankind.
How long will people in Bengal have to tolerate these diabolical intentions to hoodwink people?
There are a lot of Communist minded and ruling party leaning individual 'Qualified Uneducated' Bengali 'Enemies Within' who see no wrong in all the calculated nonsense happening in the wasted state.

Bhagwat Prasad Pandey, MP Police Officer (Episode 03) is always Happy To Help

Humour, empathy and the road in Sidhi, a small semi-rural town near Singrauli in Madhya Pradesh has fetched Bhagwat Prasad Pandey the much needed results plus a lot of personal branding and reputation management ever since April 2020.

He is seen patrolling the roads of Sidhi    and the surrounding villages driving his official Mahindra Bolero from early morning to late evening (and at times stretching to the wee hours of the morning) without displaying any fatigue and/ or irritation. The officer performs on self motivation. He doesn't work on the hypocritic inspiration of his political bosses.

The daunting challenge before him is to:
- make the poor semi-educated and illiterate population aware of the dangers of highly contagious Coronavirus.
- keep the largely rural population confined to their homes without the use of brutal force that police forces across the nation are known for.
- make people aware of the need to wear masks or wrap up the face.
- make arrangements for free food and essential supplies for the needy during the nationwide lockdown w.e.f March 25, 2020.
- ensure healthcare and quarantine facilities for anyone who needs it.
- Etc, etc, etc.

Live videos of Bhagwat Prasad Pandey on Facebook and YouTube and his style of policing (read, management) has become extremely popular with the Hindi speaking populace in MP, UP, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Haryana, NCR and elsewhere in India.

People in the small town have been following his instructions out of love and respect. Residents of the town and adjoining villages have come forward to lend a helping hand to supplement his efforts.

Bhagwat Prasad Pandey is our Indian Roadie of the difficult times.

With responsible and self motivated 'coronawarriors' like Bhagwat Prasad Pandey in the forefront, 'INDIA JITEGA, CORONA HAREGA'.

Bharat Mata Ki Jai 🙏

Fellow Indian Roadie fans and members, please join me in writing a few words to keep the adrenaline in the young officer running high.
