At a time when YSR-Congress folks are blatantly arguing that local body elections are cancelled at the behest TDP, Janasena and BJP, here comes a media house that aids them with their supporting analysis of the situation.
Earlier, Election Commissioner of the state has cancelled the elections in the wake of Corona outbreak in the country and also due to the violent clashes between rival parties during nominations.
While YSRC stated that it wants local body elections as villages of Andhra Pradesh are in urgent need of Central funds, EC is stubborn on its stand that health emergency has forced them to postpone the election.
However, this media house wrote a stunning analysis that there is no chance of Andhra Pradesh getting a single Corona case. The newspaper says that Corona outbreak will be spread in AP only if they have the international airport.
As the virus is getting passed from people who have international travel history and with AP having no such airport with international arrivals one, there is no reason to panic, the article said. Also with the airport of Hyderabad strictly quarantining passengers with symptoms, there is no way that Corona will reach AP, the newspaper felt.
One wonders if the authorities and officials in Wuhan, China or the ones in Northern Italy have such intelligence of this newspaper when it comes to predicting and assessing how COVID-19 is spreading.
Meanwhile, if YSRC folks want elections for Central funds, one wonders if the Indian government could give them grants at a time when the country is on Corona emergency?
