After having missed Eid-ul-Fitr prayers in a mosque due to coronavirus pandemic & lockdown, Muslims turned out in large numbers for Eid-ul-Adha or Bakri-Eid prayers in New Delhi's Fatehpuri Mosque, among others.

Each year in the days leading up to Bakri-Id, scor

Each year in the days leading up to Bakri-Id, scores of goat raisers, with their animals in tow, gather near the Shahi Idgah grounds in New Delhi. Buyers from all over the national capital region throng the spot, about 4 km from the iconic Jama Masjid, eyeing the wide variety of goats and haggle with the sellers, almost all of whom, belong to the Mewat district in Haryana, about 100 km south of New Delhi. With a significant population of shepherds and a sizeable number of Muslims, Mewat is the poorest and least developed district of Haryana. Mohammad Mobin, one of them, has been raising goats for over 15 years. However, he says that it has never been so difficult for him to find buyers for his goats during Bakri-Id, an Islamic festival marked by goat sacrifice. Mobin says that this year he has not be able to sell even 10 goats a day, almost half of what he was doing last year. He adds that the prices have also collapsed as the few buyers who have come this year have been negotiating hard. ''We have not received any help from the #government since the outbreak of the #pandemic. Now, this is the most important week for us and we normally make a huge profit, but this year it has been difficult to sell. In addition, the police have been driving us away from this year and let us stay only when we pay them bribes every day,'' says Mobin. On the infection, Mobin, who himself is sporting a mask, says that not everyone is taking the virus seriously and many of his buyers as well as fellow sellers are not taking any safety precautions.

Last in the long list of coronawarriors, crematori

Last in the long list of coronawarriors, crematorium workers have been forgotten by the society that has duly applauded the thousands of doctors, nurses & other healthcare workers who provide critical care to Covid-19 patients all over the country. After weeks of struggle initially, the hospital personnel are now properly equipped with protection gear such as PPE kits as well as safety glasses. But in sharp contrast, even though the crematorium workers face extremely high risk of infections from sources like the hearse and the body itself, they lack even the basic safety gear. Most of them have just a basic mask and gloves. On an average, these workers handle over a dozen bodies of Covid-19 victims everyday and have been living with a constant reminder of how fatal the virus can be. None of the workers has been given an insurance coverage for the coronavirus even as they and their families face a high level of risk. Yet, regardless of the dangers and unmindful of lack of any assistance or even basic appreciation from the government, these workers have carried on, providing a dignified cremation to the deceased. Even in the case where the families of the deceased have abandoned them for the fear of catching the virus. These coronawarriors have carried on the battle of human dignity right up to the end.

Bells don’t cease to toll on the first Monday of

Bells don’t cease to toll on the first Monday of #shraavan , the fourth month of Hindu calendar, at the #bhairavtemple , a famous spiritual spot for devotees of #lordshiva , that is packed with believers that keep streaming into the temple throughout the day. As devotees approach the temple, located at #LohaGhat on the banks of Hooghly, a distributary of the holy #RiverGanga, before entering the temple, they stop and pick up a wide variety of flowers from dozens of flower vendors, sitting in a riot of colours and fragrance as heaps of several varieties of flowers surround them.

However, this year, weeks after Shraavan began on July 6, the temple has remained almost deserted, with barely a few devotees sitting there as priests conduct individual prayers or poojas, while a whole bunch of other priests eagerly await the arrival of any other devotee so they could perform the prayer and earn their livelihood.

Though not very visible and evident, the closure of temples and the rapid spread of the #coronaviruspandemic has hit the full-time priests really hard, with almost four months gone without them being able to earn much money. ‘‘The pandemic has impacted people in each and every field. Even the priests and astrologers have been affected by it as we have been struggling financially for the past four months. Those who have some savings they might not have to worry about it but those who depend on every day earnings and have to take care of their family are the ones most affected,’’ says Gopal Purohit, who has been a priest for the past 15 years.

Purohit says while usually Shraavan is the month where priests can earn handsomely enough for them to last the rest of the year, this year has been a disaster.

Tucked right under the Howrah Bridge, Kolkata's la

Tucked right under the Howrah Bridge, Kolkata's landmark, is the iconic Mullick Ghat flower market, considered to be the largest flower market in Asia. Usually, the market is streaming with vendors from all over the state who come there to sell flowers and thousands of truckloads of flowers are brought here to be sent onwards to other parts of India and abroad. However, the lockdown following coronavirus pandemic has given this once extremely busy street a deserted look now. While earlier the market used to be packed with buyers till late night is now empty in the afternoon. Vendors who do not manage to sell their wares leave behind the unsold merchandise. “What am I going to do with the leftover flowers? It’s of no use to me. And this is the condition daily,” says a vendor.

Moushumi, a flower seller says that the past three months were nightmarish, with even getting food becoming a big challenge. Even though the Mamata Banerjee government provided rations to them on a regular basis for the past three months she says that it was difficult to support the entire family and now since the rations have stopped and the business is not picking up it gets more difficult.

After the lockdown also she says things aren’t going great. She says that the month of Shravana (fifth month of the Hindu calendar) sees high demand of Calotropis as devotees buy them to offer it to Lord Shiva. However, she says that with the fear of coronavirus and with major religious places closed people don’t buy the flowers anymore. “So if suppose I bought flowers worth INR 500 in one day, there are days when I can sell goods worth of only INR 200 and if it remains unsold then the remaining flowers we have to throw it away. We can’t even store the flowers. These flowers were in high demand every year but this year things are exactly the opposite,'' she says.
