It ended a five-day streak of recording the largest single-day increases in any country throughout the pandemic, but the decline likely reflects lower weekend testing rather than reduced spread of the virus. India recorded more than 320,000 new cases of coronavirus infection on Tuesday, raising the country's total past 17.6 million, behind only the United States. Yet Ms Dutt considers herself one of the lucky ones: вЂњMost people I report on are dying at the gates of hospitals that are shutting doors to patients.вЂќД«arkha Dutt explains why many Indians are going through greater tragedy There were no paramedics and no oxygen cylinders, she told ITV News, adding she had to beg for her father to get a bed on an intensive care ward. вЂњIt was not an ambulance, but a rickety old car repurposed,вЂќ she said. What everyday life is really like in India as deadly second wave sweeps countryДЄnd on Tuesday she experienced first-hand the kind of cases she had been reporting when an ambulance finally arrived to pick her father up.

How is the rest of the world helping India's fight against coronavirus? вЂњItвЂ™s a combination of complacency, callousness and incompetence,вЂќ she said, explaining why she believes IndiaвЂ™s authorities have led the country to such a bleak situation. There isnвЂ™t space at the cremation grounds.вЂќДespite the scale of the crisis unfolding in the country, Ms Dutt said even on Tuesday election rallies - which bring large numbers of people together - were still taking place. вЂњThere was a fight that took place between three families for one spot just to say goodbye to somebody youвЂ™ve loved. вЂњWhen my sister and I went to cremate him today at the cremation ground there was no space,вЂќ she said. This will pose a serious challenge for the Indian security apparatus as they now have to safeguard the nation from both internal and external threats.A relative of a Covid victim reacts at a crematorium in Jammu Credit: Channi Anand/AP It is a matter of shame for India, that some of the prominent names like Rahul Gandhi, Barkha Dutt, Shashi Tharoor, and others have featured in an anti-India toolkit, which aims to threaten IndiaвЂ™s sovereignty. Its sole intention is projecting India as an oppressive nation as the website is filled with provocative headlines like вЂњWhy is India killing us?вЂќ Apart from spreading lies about Article 370 and CAA, the website also lists its demand for Sikh sovereignty on its agenda. Prima facie thereвЂ™s no doubt that PJF had a huge role to play in the events that took place on the Republic Day and brought huge shame to the entire country.ДЄ quick look at the website of вЂAsk India WhyвЂ™ reveals that PJF has nothing to do with the farmers. Read More: PJF and Ask India Why: Greta just exposed two pro-Khalistan groups behind вЂfarmersвЂ™ protestвЂ™ДЄpart from the rabid anti-Hindu content on PJFвЂ™s social media pages, the organisation also held a webinar on вЂKhalistan- The Sikh Freedom StruggleвЂ™. In fact, PJF also claimed that 26th January might lead to another Sikh genocide on the lines of 1984.

The organisation falsely claims that the Indian government is killing farmers and is filled with provocative posts and evidently, spent heavily on marketing for Republic Day. PJF, which on paper is an NGO, has its Instagram page filled with propaganda up to the brim. For the uninitiated, SFJ is a Khalistani outfit, which had a key role to play in instigating the farmersвЂ™ protests and the desecration of the Red Fort on IndiaвЂ™s Republic Day. This website is owned by Poetic Justice Foundation (PJF) which is a Canada based anti-Indian organisation linked to Sikhs For Justice (SFJ). In GretaвЂ™s, now deleted toolkit, a website by the name of which is registered in the UK, finds a mention. It is no coincidence that the tweets and the articles of the aforementioned names in the toolkit like Rahul Gandhi, Barkha Dutt, Faye DвЂ™Souza, and others work overtime to tarnish the Modi governmentвЂ™s and subsequently, IndiaвЂ™s image, so much so that HitlerвЂ™s Nazi Germany would look like a saint. How does it feel to be working on a campaign with Khalistan supporters? Despite abundant knowledge in the public domain about the Khalistani angle, why has none of them distanced themselves from the toolkit? Does their stoic silence mean that this eminent lot were wilfully part of the anti-India campaign and were aware of the nefarious design beforehand? While things arenвЂ™t clear about the exact connection of this eminent lot with the toolkit, scathing questions needed to be asked to this lot. In their zeal to defame the Modi government, they have now become a part of an anti-India movement.
