    People are totally confused with contradictory & spontaneous diktats coming from different sources at different times; in fact, there should have been one single source who would issue the final orders!
    Admist these confusion the entire benefits of knockdown & quarantine & migrants movements seem to have nullified; as one can see the spiralling figures everyday! Opening of public places, transport, etc could add fuel to the fire!

    Above is purely an unbiased personal opinion only! Do your own research!

    If government had thought about economy and Jobs of young people, they would have planned before implementing lock down. Not that "everyone is doing, we will also do".

    Also they would have planned before implementing demonitization, GSD, also before wasting money on statues. They would not have asked youths to sell Pakodas.

    Please do not say that government is worried about youths becoming jobless.

    Economy is in very very bad shape as many cos are closing down & small businesses are in begging state as no money is flowing with general public!
    Many MSMEs will wind up soon if they are not supported by the authorities.

    I think we are heading in reverse direction. In other countries after lockdown ends cases declines. But in our country cases increased after lockdown ended. Id it continues like this situation will go out of control necessitating another lockdown which ultimately ends our economy. We are devoid of proper strategy in covid control. God should save us

    We have done lockdown, lighting diyas, clapping hands in a wrong time and unlocked when cases are steady increasing. We cannot comment against government because even our educated have become blind Bhakthas.

    I hope all these positive cases in Udupi are from quarantined population and not general population outside.

    99% of them arrived from other states and countries mainly Maharashtra and very very few cases are police staff at check posts coming into contact with these patients. Only ten to fifteen cases including five today are untraceable.
