So that statue of Sardar Patel, that so many corporates donated to, (I mean my mind cannot even fathom 2989 crore), let us all observe a moment of silence (now that we have finished banging plates for the medics) and imagine what could have been done with such money at such a time in our obviously very, very wealthy land. If our dear Prime Minister can garner that much money for a statue, I fervently hope he will do it again and that he will direct the riches that exists in this country towards people in the lower income bracket during this crisis, who have to work EVERY SINGLE DAY if they have to have even one daily meal in their stomachs let alone that of their families and children.
Let us pause for a moment to think of how many subsidized testing labs and hospital set ups and all necessities required in this battle against a virus, could be organized at 2989 crore instead of for a statue. Maybe along with anti CAA protests we should rally for this too?
