With not a single word by media highlighting the COVID danger during Baisakhi and people who outraged Kumbh Mela (which was devastating as well), Amritsar's Golden Temple saw lakhs of pilgrims today.
No mask and no social distancing, it was a severe case of blind faith vs pandemic as if following restrictions and SOPs is a crime and the crowd even now in the evening continues to visit.
It's about turning a blind eye and whitewashing the image of religion and blaming another just because of hatred, while in reality, it's about how people of every religion have become so blind that even following rules for their own life's betterment dont matter to them.
Punjab is currently seeing its highest daily COVID cases and out of all the cities, Amritsar has the most cases. Thanks to such religious gatherings that Golden Temple is one of the many COVID hotspots of Punjab.
