    Looks like we are heading to a civil war soon. These fake parameter tests causing fake spike reports.The severity of these lockdowns will cost everyone , the rupee will devalue and this the plan for a new world order. The web series 1,2,3 will continue. Covid is in their pockets, whenever they want they will get it out. I urge you to stop this nonsense.

    Don't only blame the government. Also blame the geniuses of DK district who do not wear masks. It's their fault that people have to choose between losing health or wealth. Mangalore may be a smart city but many people here are stupid.

    Allowing religious places in weekend is not a good decision. Our religious Heads should understand the risk and close down religious places till situation come under control.

    When will we Indians come to know about this elites and communist chinese tricks to bankrupt nations using this lab modified flu virus and so called vaccines generated virus mutant or strains for frequent lockdowns and economy loss ? So these communists and their controlled World Bank and IMF, finance and economically take over bankrupted countries also possibly invade with conventional warfare after ruining countries? That's why western elites are buying vast farm lands to bring down the economy / stock market? These elites will be the first ones to declare bankruptcy, then others will have no choice but come under these Communist controlled World Bank, IMF. Finally all come under communist chinese rule.
