Outcomes of the New Pandemic (Part-2)


If you haven't read the Part-1, click here to read it.

Thirdly, due to the lack of job security in the world, various employees are being removed from the firms and companies due to financial crunch. Millions are now unemployed and are sitting at homes dealing with daily problems according to their financial status. Another great factor contributing to unemployment is the daily wage earners who come from economically and financially low background. They manage their source of livelihood by the daily low incomes by running fast food stalls, repairing works and by performing any type of small businesses. They are the worst hit of the pandemic as their customers are not getting out of their homes. They have a minimal amount of savings and do not possess any kind of knowledge to be skilled labour. So, it is evident that both the types of labours- skilled and unskilled ones are facing the catastrophe currently.

In India, the situations are the same as seen in the world. The unemployment rates had boomed suddenly in the month of April which was increasing steadily from the start of the year. The stats had increased much from low labour participation as they were harrowed back to their homes in different states. This has made situations complicated for the industries sector. But in the month of May, the stats seem to fall with a great speed as the Indian Government has put all their efforts to balance the unemployment rates to their lowest. They have successfully launched various schemes and raised funds for the welfare of the unemployed.

Fourthly, this calamity has just demolished the reservoirs of resources and its shortage has started to occur. The sources are as before but the manpower and the appropriate conditions have been reduced to their lowest. The daily supplies and healthcare commodities have been hampered the most in this situation.
The gravest of all is the increasing vulnerability of food security. According to the estimates by UNWFP, at least 265 million people are at a risk of going hungry in 2020, which is almost twice as many in 2019. PPE kits, sanitizers, masks, and all the protective commodities are running low in various countries due to panic shopping and low production capacity. These nations are retaliating with promoting domestic products to avoid instability and shortages of any kind.


In a nutshell, this pandemic has delivered a dismal time to the people all around the world. On the same plane has somehow ignited innovations in the brains. Every mind now is not fearing of the pandemic but is just searching for ways to get out of this once-in-a-life situation. And perhaps that’s why I believe that these outcomes will surely be the bonds of upcoming world superpowers. And that should be the truth or else the outcomes will shake the world!

Diminished Diwali

Image
The slow but steady debauching of festivals has taken over the minds of many of us. Diwali, the festival of lights, one of the most awaited, just passed a few days back. It was observable that year by year, the festivals are losing their hype and we are being taken far from the origins of our culture,  unknowingly . In this blog, I plan to delineate some of the major obstacles erected through the past.  These obstacles were premediated by ones who plan to take us to the way of living, where we shouldn’t have gone.   Firstly, as I belong to the student community, I would like to emphasize the grave topics which are prevalent for years in every school in the nation. We all are given holiday homework on these types of festivals be it Diwali, Dusshera, or be it the summer or winter vacations. Why? As far as I’ve heard from some of the teachers, these are to keep the child occupied in the holidays so that he/she doesn’t get bored or some of them might say that this homew...

Media Conversing with Problems

  Many hardships and tussles are going over in India. There are companies bidding goodbye, factories going for hibernation, education going nominal and the nation being comatose. And I would not like to exaggerate the pandemic, as the media is doing their job.                                               Let us get an ear to the conversation going on within the country as different characters participate in expressing their views. This conversation is a part of humor and satire mingled to give way for media.        Economist :         India is entering into an economic recession. We have attained a GDP of -23.2%. It is being predicted that half of the population will go unemployed. Grave news i...

A History of Pandemics

Image
Knowing lately, this ongoing pandemic is not going to completely vanish very soon, we have been brought to a juncture of past and future. Whether we should learn from past events or search for catharsis in the future. Learning would take time and so would the searching. So why not just take a dip in the ancestry of all the relatives, the youngest of whom is the one-year-old, COVID - 19. Getting a bit at the terminology, there are several designations bestowed upon the diseases. Some are endemic, some are epidemic and the highest of them is pandemic. In this blog, we’ll majorly focus upon the pandemics, as the other levels have a plethora of diseases under them. Moving in chronological order, the first pandemic which wiped out nearly 75-200 million people in the years of 1346 - 1353 was caused by the bubonic plague. This was known as the BLACK DEATH. It was the one and only pandemic which ravaged three continents, Asia, Europe, Africa over a long span of time. The bubonic plague ha...

Was this Diwali?

Coming up is my approach towards the understanding of less ‘craze’ in Diwali. I know that most of you might have not gone through this less craze and must have enjoyed it beyond the limits. But for some of you, it was not so. Enjoy it in the form of a diary entry.   Dear Diary,   Was this Diwali? 14 th day of November arrived on Saturday and went in a swoosh of air. It seemed that Sundays were much more awaited than Diwali. The morning messages started with the wishes and ended at night with sharing snaps. Neither of the children were happy on their day nor the diyas placed on the boundary walls. There were no hoots of kids enjoying the fireworks. There were bright colours of red and blue and yellow in rangolis , but were the colours enticing for eyes? Did these colours ignite something related to happiness? There were belly relishing sweets, but did their aroma dance in our nostrils? Perhaps not, because there were masks on our faces rather than joy. Our eyes had...

Illusion Of Our Backwardness (Part-1)

The brain of a backward whether in social or economic aspect always aspire to run in the rat race of the richer section, but both of them have a thing in common that they think they are at the extremes of the group. The point we are not cognizant is the fact that the extremes are same in temperature and possess equal opportunities and cautions. And as on the same surface, every backward can change the respect of his extreme to neutral. Firstly, we are humans that can help the so-called mentality of unequal genesis to be diminished peacefully and be the spirits of peace thumping gladiators who have lowered them to hearts as well as the ‘societal standards’ internationally. The backwards however don’t have a designation, they could be rich or poor, could be strong or constrained, could be progenies or new comers; exists a large number of varieties in the globe. But specifically, the one who doesn’t have enough wealth or doesn’t possess enough knowledge or is not up to date with t...

The Mahatma - Gandhi

“Non-Violence is the greatest force at the disposal of man. It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of man.” This was the belief system of a person who renounced the world through his idea of ‘Ahimsa’. He was a person of integrity with always an optimistic view to the world. He had a benevolent attitude towards not only his countrymen but the people from the outside sphere of India. All of them just had a glimpse of seeing a lord before them watching his magnanimous personality. The one who fully lived his life worthwhile and up to the limits where no one can establish his success to the peak. He did not strive to be a distinct persona but took risks on his account and determined the goal to the independence of our country. He is the father of our nation, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. He left out a spirit flaming with the fuel of self -determination and ethos, and now we have to enlighten the whole world with his credence proving...

SOCIAL MEDIA unlocked in lockdown

Image
S ocial media, virtual games, online watching, internet browsing, etc. have always doubted upon the loneliness inside us. They have always helped us to regain back the essence of that time when the mind has no chance to escape from the scope of their techno world. The recent days at our houses have passed by the same speed with which the normal days were passing. But the huge alter is that we are not feeling the presence of the recent days because of the tech know-how we have. In these days of the pandemic, the society is not stepping out of the houses to take care of themselves, as well as others and, are probably feeling trapped in their own places. As a result, people are becoming obsessed with social media, virtual games, online watching, and many more which are familiar with the technology. Let’s see what the people were attracted to in this lockdown - towards productivity or towards destroying creativity . · As compared to the week before lockdown, 75%...

Outcomes of the New Pandemic (Part-1)

Image
The global pandemic has scribbled upon the development books of around 188 nations in the present situation. It has just put a halt even to the developed nations and has taken us all to the juncture where everything has to restart slowly. But all the nations are reviving with great enthusiasm among its citizens. This category includes China, USA, India, France, Italy, Russia, Canada, etc. There are several outcomes of this disease and these are the key point of this article. Firstly, the trade relations between the nations are badly shook by the huge financial and economical fluxes this pandemic has caused. All the countries are trying to cope up from this disease by bringing their economy back on track, but the trade relations between some countries are quite disturbing for them. The relations between the United States and China has worsened time and again from the starting of imposing huge tariff rates during the China-US Trade War in 2018. The US says that China has i...

PLAN-DEMIC and Propaganda

Image
  T he pandemic has continued for more than a year now, and we are still left in the dark for the real reasons behind this pandemic. Was this actually planned or just a naturally occurring once-in-a-hundred-year event? I personally don’t think of it as a 100-year event, because there is no assurance that another pandemic will wait 100 years from now. As the think tanks are in action, many of the conspiracy theories are being surfaced. The reason behind this is so much detrimental to humanity, that it will and surely will reoccur in the future. In this blog, I briefly indicate some of the many clues left in the air.   The pandemic as we see is only a scene of pity and destruction of families all over the world. Contrastingly , when the unprincipled people see the scenario, they add a little more degree in their view. Some see it as a business boom, some see it as the beginning of authoritarianism, while some see it as a sideway to make things work ...

The Right to Harm

 The right to harm is the new black for the dark errands of the human brains. Nowadays it has gained the enormity of the moment. Although, it is not sanctioned by the government but approved by the society. It has now taken the form of a man-made monster which is empoisoning its approvers including the deterioration of the ethnicity and gravity of the human race.   The deadly monster is continuing its breath through its indispensable limbs which have comforted themselves in various communities. These have to be enervated or amputated from the root. The limbs have granted opportunity in the fields of cyber harm, economic harm, societal harm, intellectual and physical harm and many other forms. In the hour of modernisation, care and love of the humans is deforming into the shadows of misery and are contributing in its growth.   In current scenario, this monster is haunting the boundaries of nature and wildlife. The man is so much hungry that he has now started gobb...
