PEople should exercise restraint in going out as the Covid cases are rising. Contrary to this, markets in Solan are witnessing huge crowds throughout the day. Mall Road registers the maximum influx of vehicles, including three-wheelers, and pedestrians have little space to maintain social distancing. Residents should themselves be responsible to restrict their outings instead of expecting the government to impose another lockdown. — Balram, solan
Health Minister should have done surprise inspection
THE long-delayed visit of the Health Minister to the IGMC Covid ward is nothing more than an eyewash and a damage-control exercise. Things could have been different if it was a surprise inspection. Since the visit was planned, the IGMC authorities would have placed things in order. How can a patient admitted to the ward, who is at the mercy of doctors and paramedical staff, speak against them? Everyone knows the reality of Covid patients, but for the minister all is well. — Ashok, shimla
