Betrayal

People get corrupted under corrupt rulers. The irregularities of the Karuvannur Cooperative Bank are far beyond imagination. Siphoning over Rs 50 cr from 46 bank loans by a single person is amazing

There are over 3,000 cooperative banks statewide, and these banks are run by political parties. If the party leaders are corrupt, the followers also seek the same path. It is therefore very urgent to take a close look at the entire cooperative banking sector in the state, otherwise the people who have deposited their hard earned money in these banks will lose it forever.

Money and corruption ruin the state. Crooked politicians betray the working class by treating them like sheep. This modern sheep receives fodder in the form of occasional food kits.

About Covid discipline

#Imposing #Covid discipline

A fight between traders and police in Kozhikode over Covid-19 regulations is an indication of poor management of implementing Covid protocols. The current approach of Covid protocols works for the rich and the salaried class while it hurts traders, workers and day laborers.

In states like Andhra, the practice is that it is not the duty of the government but of the people to observe the Covid protocols. Anyone refuses to obey the rules that he alone is subjected to damages and the government has no direct responsibility for this. Strict adherence to  lockdown in Kerala is a reason enough for people to congregate in public places when the lockdown is lifted. And it is a potential cause for the spread of Covid.

People have been dealing with Covid for about two years and most of them know how to tackle it.  So it is high time for the  government to consider whether to continue or not strict discipline in imposing Covid restrictions.
