Thank You , Shri Narendrabhai ,
What
for ?
For moving from Quadrant A to Quadrant B
Please
explain :
In my following email, I urged him ,
[ A
Case of Conflicting Concerns / 23
April 2020 ] ,
“Dear Shri Narendrabhai,
Citizen of USA / Europe / South America / Iran etc ., are
agitating for complete and immediate lifting of lockdown
This amounts to bypassing " Quadrant B " and straight away jumping from "
Quadrant A " , directly to "
Quadrant C " !
Irrespective of what happens in those countries, we must not
fall prey to this populism , which will spell disaster “
Did he read your E mail ?
I have no acknowledgement from PMO but I am tempted to believe,
considering yesterday’s order
from MHA ( Ministry of Home Affairs ) , which admirably balances the following “ Conflicting Concerns “ :
Ø Concern for LIVES ( through continued
emphasis on Social Distancing )
Ø Concern for LIVELIHOOD ( by permitting
partial resumption of Economic Activities )
What is that order ?
Ø Extension of lockdown by 2 weeks, with
partial resumption of Economic Activities
Ø Dividing entire country into three
Zones ( RED / ORANGE / GREEN
)
Ø Specifying for each Zone , activities
which are permitted and activities which are prohibited
But what mechanism
decides RED
- ORANGE - GREEN
status of a Zone ?
Ø This is assigned based on the RISK PROFILE of an area .
In my another email , CRY , Beloved Country / 15 April 2020,
I had suggested
following matrix for this process :
