India’s Continuing  fight

With reference to the report India's Covid-19 case tally passes 25 million (May18): the reality on ground is just horrific. India’s second wave is attacking even the young and there are numerous cases where people have been infected for a second time, showing the unpredicatable nature of the virus. Apart from this crisis, the cyclone hit and state governments have to provide cyclone relief.Till the country makes headway with vaccines, the only tools at our disposal are social distancing and hope.

Prices should be monitored.

The recent announcement from the government to monitor drugprices is really a good sign.Many private hospitals are charging more than the prescribed price and many failed to pay because of the exorbident tariff was sad.One hand i applaud majority of the hospitals are doing a good service and maintaining the tariff as per the government order but few are exploiting was sad.People should be care ful and if there is any excess charges found they can inform the authorities as per the latest order.Humanitarian consideration is needed at this crucial hour from hospitals.

Decades of Conflict.

 The recent crisis in Jerusalem after Israel’s attack and the casualties and crisis continuing was not only sad but unacceptable one. There should be a probe for this and the real fact should come out which side the fault lies either from Palestinians or Israeli’s. Innocent lives was lost is condemned and not a healthy signDespite warnings signalled by two Arab nations earlier the US Biden administration was ignored and now asking for peace and realize the severity of the crisis. When Israel Palestinians problem will be solved and when Middle East should have peace ? Will Decades of conflict should be over  ? UN and International community must intervene and makethe region stable and peace

 Letter Published in The National UAE on 13 May 21India needs more people like Jitendra ShindeI write to you with regard to Sanket Jain's article India's Covid-19 crisis: rickshaw driver gives free hospital trips to thousands (May 5): it was really touching to read the humanity displayed by the rickshaw driver, Jitendra Shinde. People are afraid of mingling with Covid-19 patients and here he is, taking them to hospital, at his own cost, risking his own health.Mr Shinde has rendered remarkable yeoman services to thousands of passengers, especially Covid-19 patients and their relatives, to take them to hospitals. Such people are rare. His services to humanity in a time like this is remarkable. He too is a front-line worker. And that so far he has not turned away a single passenger is a humbling thought. It makes one grateful for people like him.Very few will have such a social consciousness and voluntarily come forward to help. He is one one such and a thousand kudos to people like him. The country, more than ever, needs more Jitendra Shindes.K Ragavan, Bengaluru, India
