this isn't a rant. This is just the smallest explanation I can give of whatever the fuck is even going on in this country anymore.

I'll start from events in the start of this year till now.

with the farmers protests going on, India urged China to back away from Pangong lake in Ladakh. Everything wasn't that bad at that time, everything was rather calm. Not many covid cases, Infact covid cases were going lower and lower day by day. We had some hope, hope of going back to a normal life style. Hope of everything going back to normal and our economy going back up.

And the farmers were still protesting for their rights(I support the farmers). They weren't backing down either. But everything was going alright. Then came Republic Day, 26th January. The Delhi police allowed farmers and tractors to pass for a tractor rally. But then things escalated.

Well, what happened? to explain it simply. After a LOT of tractors and protesters came in the Capital territory, the police became violent. The police then threw tear gas bombs at the protesters who were unarmed and had NO weapons on them whatsoever. Then, the farmers fought back and defended themselves. They broke down the barriers and ran through the streets. Lots of farmers had the Indian flag with them, and they weren't putting the flags down no matter what happened. They marched through the streets and eventually protested in front of the iconic red fort. Lot of people managed to get INSIDE the red fort. There was so much controversy about this and was on the news for 2 weeks. Especially because there was government propaganda being spread by Modi, and to make the farmers look bad when they only defended themselves. Infact, the officers killed 300+ unarmed protesters as well. The day was... gorey but not too gorey to say the least.

so many people saw it, on the news or on grounds. Everyone was talking about it. It was on global news.

but no one ever talked about what we Indians felt of the situation. I don't speak for all Indians when I say this, I only speak for those who have similar to opinions as mine, we though that the government was going to get more violent and the farmers would be left with no choice but to revolt. Which by the sounds of it, was obviously not going to end well. And thankfully that didn't happen. But something else which was also terrifying took place. The government sent some soldiers from the Indian army to surround some parts of Punjab. That meant, if things got too violent, then the Punjabi people would DEFINITELY revolt. And once again, thankfully the army was given orders to leave the area.

now comes February 2021.
Elections were announced in West Bengal, Kerala, Assam, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry.
And then, there were nation wide protests against the rising fuel prices. And it was HUGE, and almost everyone from every state and Union territory was involved in it. Besides that not much really happened in February.

March 2021
This is when the covid cases started spiking. Tens of thousands of people were getting infected per day. The situation at this point was spiralling, it could be been kept in control if the government decided to actually help but they didn't. All hell broke loose in April 2021...

April 2021
the Oxygen crisis had now officially started.
