Maharashtra extends lockdown till July 31
As it entered the 2nd wave of Covid-19, India realised that despite the events of last year, it had not adequately prepared itself. In the last few weeks, India witnessed horrifying scenes from all around the nation, the ones from the metro cities were highlighted the most and smaller cities were seemingly ignored.
What needs to be duly noted is that India’s national capital, Delhi’s health infrastructure was supposedly the best but it still collapsed when 2nd wave hit it, in such situation, will India’s vulnerable cities be able to face the wrath of this wave? It’s high time the authorities divert their focus to tier 2 and tier 3 cities as well.
