Subject:  Covid-19 and destruction of liberty, economy, science and society of Bengal

Honourable Chief Minister Bannerjee,

I was born and schooled in various towns and provinces of India but am now a citizen and resident of Canada. I am an engineer by profession. I write this letter to you conveying my concern involving the way governments including yours is handling the covid-19 situation. I have also expressed the same view to the Prime Minister Trudeau, as well as many other elected politicians here in Canada. I aim to send also another note with the same message to the current Prime Minister of India, Mr. Modi, shortly.

Media and the governments in most nations, barring a few exceptions, are incessantly chanting on a new mantra which claims covid-19 to be an all consuming once in a century pandemic, and that to save mankind, one has to follow strict medical guidelines which up to now include:

• Shut down of non-essential businesses
• Denying people’s right to assemble, and enforcing social distancing
• Wearing a mask in stores and other enclosed spaces in presence of others
• Use unproven testing schemes to determine if a person is infected or not, irrespective of if the person is sick or healthy.
• Restricting travel
• Enforcing quarantine for people either suspected of being infected, or as safety measure after travel.
• Being prepared to take vaccines as soon as they arrive,

There may be more items to follow. Some politicians are claiming that this covid threat will remain for a few years before things can go back to something faintly resembling normalcy.

However, I have noted that neither my birth country, India, nor my adopted country, Canada, have conducted any in-house independent, transparent and verifiable assessment of the covid threat, and neither have they checked if any of the restrictive measures listed above actually work to prevent movement of any virus from person to person or from air to person. Essentially, governments are putting their national and provincial economy, liberty, wealth and future to the sword, simply based on third party hearsay. Even worse, the World Health Organisation, which categorised covid-19 as a pandemic, have themselves not provided verifiable proof of the dangers of covid or the usefulness of the economic shut downs and personal restrictions.

The burning question in my mind is – why are governments agreeing to commit what to me appears to be little more than a propaganda to destroy selective small businesses, enforce mass impoverishment,  and bring in forced medication for a huge windfall profit for big Pharma. It also looks like a backdoor terrorist attack to destroy the wealth of nations and that of the common man, in an organised massive transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich, while promoting a new age of global dictatorship and shutting down of personal freedom, rights and liberty.

I have tried, and am continuing to try, to get some layer of the Canadian government to commit to assess the covid threat and if no proof of danger is found, to declare this as fake and engineered conspiracy to bring in a new form of fascism to help the corporate takeover of the planet.

Meanwhile I write this note as another appeal to ask you to either conduct your own, unbiased, transparent and verifiable assessment of the reality of the virus called sars-cov-2 that is reported to cause an illness named covid-19, and the usefulness of any of the restrictive measures being enforced, encouraged or allowed by your governments.

If however, your government is following the diktat of the World Health Organisation because it is afraid of financial repercussion of not complying with their suggestions, then your government should have the grit, the spine and the guts to own up to the public, that their society is being blackmailed into covid compliance.

Where governments are not at all coming clean on the covid issue, I cannot help but conclude that the political class are in essence acting treasonous and that the responsible politicians should be in prison.

In closing, I would add that I really do not believe you, as a chief minister of a province, will have the wherewithal, the courage, or the gumption to act upon this letter. It is more convenient to just trash it. In that, I suppose you will do your duty of following the globalist suggestion of keeping the covid issue under a veil of secrecy and obfuscation.

Therefore I intend to also perform my duty as a world citizen – of making this letter public.

If however, miracles still happen, and you decide to conduct your own in-house, honest, transparent and verifiable assessment of the covid threat and let the public scrutinise it, or demand that the Modi government does the same before you will allow Bengal to be put under any restriction – then you shall have performed your own sworn duty of protecting the interest of the people, and also earn my genuine admiration.

Encouraging you to introspect, I remain,

Comments welcome. I’d like to interact with folks that might be supportive, or otherwise like to address this question of absence of proof of danger, to discuss or to approach elected politicians.
