The Patient-Voter Dilemma: West Bengal Elections
Well, it may not be an open letter, but a rough draft, setting out my dilemma and irony of the elections in my constituency, or instead in my state this time. Going by the tone of my subject, I am referring to the ongoing West Bengal elections. So, this draft is more from the position of a sick and confused voter. The Election Commission, lovingly or unlovingly, the 'E.C.' declared something strange. They announced eight (8) phases of the electoral process, which initially seemed practical given the pandemic waves. Still, as we continued to survive, it was more apparent that pandemic was never the reason for such an unconscious declaration. Some say the E.C. is politically driven, with the right-wing leaders being the puppeteers. That may be true, to a certain extent, given the untoward reach of the right-wing leadership, or maybe not. Everyone got more days to campaign, conspire and conquer the mass. Even the leaders developed effective means, one wheelchair at a time. What they did not get right is the candidature. A plethora of known and unknown celebrities brought in, with or without a clear leadership path, for whom it is more fashionable to be on a political stage than an actual one. They indeed are lovable, but then again, the lack of leadership abilities and the compassion to reach the deeper audience makes it difficult for a rational voter like me to get to the polling booth and vote. I am neither a political theorist nor a campaigner for any of the political parties. I belong to the mass whose vote counts. Unluckily, I am also a Covid positive patient who is afraid of being a spreader, trust me on this, and you do not want this virus to decimate you, both mentally and physically. Then there is a power-play between these political parties, which sadly increases the death rate. Humans killing other humans when there is already a deadly outbreak of a virus which has killed more humans than Mao Zedong. Was holding elections at such an unprecedented time necessary? We have more medical professionals dying than the general public, which means there will be no doctors to treat us. For a state like West Bengal to thrive, attractive employment schemes should be the priority, yet it is in the ninth place for the wheelchair-led government. I am not even going into the fact that 'Healthcare' is not even part of the manifesto. That is alarming because we are 'taking a bath' in this second wave. The other disturbing thing is letting right-wing culture dominate the liberal minds. Examples of anarchy in other states owing to the right-wing culture have proved to be very uncivilized and backward. It would be chaotic under the larger scheme of things and a repetition of history as seen under every dictator the world has witnessed in the past decade. So we need to vote in these elections. I am not sure if one party would get the absolute majority, but five years would be a long time to correct the mistake if it does. As a super spreader, I am worried that I would invariably affect other voters, which would be morally incorrect. I may be overthinking, but this disease can kill you, as it has killed many near and dear ones, if not physically drained, to even take a trip to the polling station.
P.S.: This is not a political op-ed but a genuine dilemma. I hope sharing these thoughts would not kill me.

My city just had a category 2 cyclone that left a trail of destruction in its wake. Most of the people don't have water or electricity and it is absolutely impossible to maintain social distancing in this situation.
I don't know how much more we can take.
