New Delhi: Coronavirus is giving India’s politicians the jitters. The virus is likely to stay longer than anticipated, threatening to change the rules of what has traditionally been a contact sport — politics.
Social distancing norms would mean no mega rallies, no town hall or village square meetings, and not even ‘chai pe charcha’— at least, not on the scale they used to be. Protests and demonstrations would be construed as a public health hazard. What would happen to politicians then? The question is giving sleepless nights to many.
“It’s a big crisis for us. Chunav maathe par hai. Pata hi nahin chalta kaise move karein (Elections are round the corner. Don’t know how to move around),” Lalan Paswan, an MLA from Bihar’s Chenari constituency, told ThePrint. He has got projects worth Rs 1,000 crore sanctioned for his constituency, but is unable to lay their foundation stones due to the lockdown.
“Etna bura samay to kabhi aayaa hi nahin… ab lagta hai TV, radio par hi prachar karna hoga (Never encountered such bad times. Seems we will have to campaign through TV and radio only),” said three-term BJP MLA from Barh, Gyanendra Singh Gyanu.
Bihar assembly elections are slated in October-November.
However, it’s not just politicians from poll-bound states who are worried. Their counterparts in other states also dread the prospects of having to live with the virus and do politics, too.
What if a vaccine is never found and the virus never goes away as British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and the World Health Organization have ominously warned!
Indian politicians are not so pessimistic but are thinking aloud: How does one do politics in times of coronavirus when there is restricted space for physical interactions with voters? Who will be the gainers and the losers if the virus is here to stay — the ruling or the opposition parties?
