This thread has been buzzing through the day while we have been reaching food to the hungry. We did about 12k meals today and am so tired that every part of my body is sore. Damn the 8PM and the bunch of mindless morons who support him!!

@KayKap I don't know about other states but in Kerala all these sectors and it's workers were already notified by as essential services. Anyone, not getting enough labourers for harvesting their crop can call the local administration and things would be taken care of. Central Government has issued a statement for that.

@KnottedBow I was just wishing for that. More mechanized would be so much better. But supply chain is disturbed too. Logistics has taken a massive hit. half the freight carriers are unorganized sector. Singapore has given a 4-day notice for a lockdown

@shinjini Which "normal" are we talking about? Economic normal for the self employed is two years away at least. Psychological normal will take more time and as a nation we are finding one reason after another to get divided.
Sorry if I sound pessimistic.

I was holding back; but there's going to be no more normal. Mo''s forgotten 1 critical thing - it's harvest time. Wheat & pulses; farmers are dumping harvest into drains & compost pits; shortages are beginning. If this lockdown doesn't ease India is looking at food shortage. Economic recovery, my foot!

Google & Holi

Go to *Google* and type *Holi*.

Somewhere below on the right-hand side there will appear 2-3 bowls of Colours. Click on them and start tapping all over your Screen.

Then on the top, in the centre, you will see an icon of a Water droplet 💧. Touch that and Water will flow down your screen, "washing off" the Colours.

It's cool to watch. 😊

Happy Holi
