    The education minister as especially ashwath narayan is pretty adamant about conducting the state board exams , even after the spike . While the other ministers are not in sync with his decision. This sums up the whole karnataka govt , a delusional and confused govt.

    Human mentality is very strange. They just blame each other, but will not take precaution. Every irresponsible citizen is reponsible for covid surge. Close all religious place for some time. Close down school and colleges. Allowing 200 people for wedding is a crazy decision by govt. L

    How you can forget your beloved leader Trump even after he is not in power. That's the beauty when people leave this digital India, acche din and the best economy and settle in USA, they think they can pen anything they like.
