It is so sad that politicians seem unable to think on nothing but politics all the time, they are always trying to get some sort of win out of every single situation that presents itself and while not surprising as I am seeing not the exact same situation but something similar in the sense that the politicians on the opposition to the government are trying to find ways to undermine the government efforts to vaccinate the population, at the same time it is incredibly disappointing since the lives of people are at stake here and not even that is enough for them to put their differences aside.
After all, politics is like any other profession. If your competitor does well, then your job will get negatively impacted. Actually this pattern can be seen all over the world and not just in India. However, in India doing this is relatively easier because majority of the population is not educated and therefore can't differentiate genuine news from fake news. On top of that, social media giants such as Twitter and Facebook are also supporting certain political parties in India and therefore the level playing field is not there.
