In view of the horrific surge of more than 1100 cases of Covid 19 pandemic in the capital city of India for the last four days daily, with no indication of these cases coming down, the Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejrival has announced that the Delhi borders with Haryana and Uttar Pradesh would be sealed for a week subject to the review after knowing the views n consent of Delhites.

Only commuters with necessary passes and govt I Cards would be allowed to travel. He also asked Delhi citizens to give their suggestions till Friday evening whether the Delhi government hospitals should be confined for treatment of Covid 19 desease for only Delhi residents or for all of other states, though he also admitted that Delhi is the capital of India and it’s the city of all Indians belonging to various states of the country whether Kerala, Tamilnadu, Jharkhand, Bihar, UP etc , always seeking treatment in Delhi hospitals.

    This man has all the time to respond to tweets of Naxalite journalist Sagarika Ghosh and worry about her haircut but no time to respond to queries and worries of patients.
    Advertisements in lakhs of rupees and thousands of U tube ads to rehabilitating infiltrators of Bangladeshis and Rohingyas, raising his own salary 5 years back which is more than the President of India, increasing salaries of maulanas and maulvis has undoubtedly proven that AAP is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
    Get well soon Delhites !
