STORIZEN CONTRIBUTE
The Unacknowledged Corona-Paragons
- Riya Gulati
Coronavirus pandemic has swapped our life in so many ways, bringing us closer together and reaffirming the importance of viability. There are many unsung heroes who are putting their lives at pitfall in order to save our nation. We get the privilege to lead a safer life under the quiet channelling of the very positive energy of the healthcare workers, police personnel, defence forces, firefighters, transporters, hygiene and sanitation staff, electricity department, bankers, philanthropists, home delivery professionals, ragpickers, shopkeepers, think thanks, politicians and media.
Hence, I would take this opportunity to deliver my heartfelt gratitude to all the coronavirus fighters and share some insights into the Delhi Pradesh CGHS (Dhruv Apt). Indeed, not all the heroes wear capes and they are all around us and uncelebrated. They are the one who has given their life to something bigger than oneself. These healers have to unintentionally leave their own families to work endlessly for the society.
From Janata Curfew to the nationwide lockdown, the staff of the Delhi Pradesh CGHS have played a pivotal role in serving humanity. Mr Dildar, Mr Chauhan, Mr Darpan, Mr Mohammad, Mr Prabhav, Ms Janaki and Ms Savita have not only ensured the safety, security, cleanliness, peace and discipline in the society but have also maintained the importance of HealthForAll by preventing the transmission of COVID19 and promoting universal access to essential commodities (by getting engaged with the Daawat and helping out the elders in the home delivery). They have been tirelessly working day and night under extreme weather conditions and epidemic just to promote our well-being.
In order to facilitate us, they have been shielding our society from the interlopers and prohibiting the entry of the outsiders, sanitizing every house, delivering essential supplies at our doorsteps, promoting social distancing and ensuring the cleanliness of our apartment with a big smile. While everyone is complaining about the lockdown of being stuck up or prisoned at one place- some of these warriors have not yet reunited with their families
and still, they are risking their own lives to save ours. Everyone lives for themselves but there are very few who live for others.
Also, the head of the society succoured in controlling the lockdown situation in a nice manner (during the festivals and ongoing protests). The thali and candle lightening tasks are given by our Hon’ble Prime Minister was not only an appreciation moment for the coronavirus warriors, but it also showed us how united/fearless/happy we are unlike other countries. Hence, we celebrated ourselves while celebrating the frontline Corona warriors. The generosity, selflessness, hard work, positivity and sacrifice of the corona warriors will soon mark the triumph of good over the evil.
Furthermore, there is a good thing to learn from the prevailing pandemic is that there is no job too big or too small and thereby, we need to respect our work and appreciate the work of others. These corona warriors not only work for the monetary benefits but also for our nation’s safety. Hence, we need to reward them with massive respect, admiration and help them as much as
MAY 2020
possible. Unity, patience, wisdom and obedience will help us to fight against this deadly disease and we will soon overcome this fiendish time.
With all great love and honour, the whole nation applauds and salutes the contribution made by every Corona Hero.
