Dozens of hospitals in a number of Indian cities and towns have run short of the gas, sending relatives of patients scrambling for oxygen cylinders, sometimes in vain.

The Supreme Court directed the Union government to ensure 700 metric tonne (MT) of medical oxygen is supplied to Delhi, stating that even its judges feel “helpless” after hearing cries of people suffering due to shortage of oxygen, beds, and essential medicines in the national capital. It asked the Centre to submit a plan in the court detailing how this target would be met, including logistical details.

As per the opinion opined by the well-known journalists Vinod Dua, he has soughted the Delhi High Court remarks as the utmost disgrace to the Government.

Has the Central government remained indifferent to the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic situation that is rocking the nation now? The lurking suspicion is prevailing in the minds of the people as an atmosphere had been created till December last year that the deadly disease that made an inroad into the entire world last year, courtesy China, was controlled with precision, especially in India. The government realised the dastardly effect and its catastrophe when the crisis escalated and reached an alarming proportion from February this year.

However, the problem cropped up when the Union Health Minister cautioned the patients not to visit the hospitals, as the oxygen was available in plenty. The patients, however, much to their chagrin and discomfiture found out the shortage of oxygen and drugs like remdesivir.

The word tomorrow always triggers one's imagination because nobody has seen tomorrow. It can only cognitively be touched and felt. It is analogous to life after death which nobody has seen. Consequently since time immemorial it has led to spinning out dreams and visions of tomorrow, of future of the world with the intensity and swiftness of domino effect in speculations of various possibilities by writers, poets, social reformers, philosophers, sages and saints. It is generally interpreted connotatively very seldom denotatively.

The world of tomorrow is infinitely large and allows to mushroom in its womb deep sea of events and happenings, visions and hopes which provide the necessary impetus for the present to survive and assiduously work for a happy future. It is in fact an intangible shadow of time.

To take a risk is an ability which is inborn in every human. However, most loose this ability with the passage of time. Few people destined to be leaders in their areas of interest take the plunge in directions in which they risk it all to get to their goals. One such leader in development for the state of Meghalaya is Dahun Shisha Lyngdoh. She not only left a lucrative career with the corporate giant Google but went all out in her preparation of Meghalaya Civil Services. The result reflects the hard work. She topped the civil services examinations in the state. Add a comment Read more: Dahun Shisha Lyngdoh tops Meghalaya Civil Service Examination
