You behave, I do what I want
The hierarchy inherent in any social endeavour is exposingitself more and more as the stakes get higher and higher in the West Bengalelections.

The rulers have always fed off the ruled, but what will youdo about an indiscriminating entity like the Covid virus which knows nodifference between any people based on any criteria.
The pandemic will not show any prejudice against or favourto any celebrities, politicians, world-leaders, or common individuals like youand I.
The growth rate in poll-bound states will shock you
Some numbers don’t lie and one of the relevant ones here isthe growth in Corona infection rates.
Puducherry has seen 2638%, Assam has seen 3038%, Tamil Naduhas seen 1450%, West Bengal has seen 2663%, and Kerala has seen 172% growth inCorona infection rates.
Still not stopping
The leaders are still not in any mood to pay attention topublic health and safety or to even the sanctity of the rules and laws of theland.
The political rallies and the immeasurable crowd that willaccompany each of these is a definite risk because it is inevitable that thesafety rules will be broken when so many people are gathered.
These rallies usually end up becoming super-spreader events.
In the next eight days, Modi will lead 6, Shah 10, andMamata 17 rallies.
