Restrictions notwithstanding, the temptation to indulge in grand festivities must be resisted. With Holi around the corner, it is only natural for the fervour to be subdued with rising Covid-19 cases.

A more worrying trend, however, is the congregation of masses at pollical rallies and religious events.

The steep incline in Covid-19 cases must be arrested before the situation gets out of control. Small perceived victories of the first wave should not be taken for granted as we witness the second wave.

Politicians must remember — citizens, not polls, come first.

The way we celebrate festivals has undergone a massive change and as human beings, even grudgingly, we will have to embrace this change.

The vibrant festival will certainly lose its charm due to the prevailing conditions and citizens need to resist the temptation to indulge in festivities at a large scale.

Keeping rising cases in mind, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation has banned private Holi celebrations as well.

With elections around the corner, the political parties must also realise that it is not the time to squabble over small issues and put the safety of citizens above everything else.

Rallies can wait and can be held on virtual modes if the need arises. The need of the hour is to to stop this deadly surge in COVID cases.
