| Jaan Jaaye Par Wazwan Na Jaaye, say doctors on social media! | | Kashmir wedding season another worry amidst Covid second wave | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, May 27: Even as every half-an-hour someone is testing positive for Covid19 in Kashmir, people are more concerned about celebrating marriages only to get “humiliated” on the social media for their allegedly “misplaced priorities.”
The wedding season has picked up in Kashmir with people opting for wazwan, the traditional feast served on trami, shared by four guests. While the medical health experts have raised concerns over the such celebrations in the middle of the second wave of the pandemic, those celebrating marriages seem to be careless. But the social media is fuming with slogans like “Jaan Jaye Par Wazwan Na Jaaye” being posted by doctors themselves.
Even though the government has fixed the number of guests at 25, the celebrations, it’s feared can further the deadly infection in Kashmir. “When four people sit on Trami to eat Wazwan and no one knows with surety if the Waza is infected, such a gathering is bound to create havoc,” said a medical health expert.
A senior Kashmir doctor working abroad slammed the people back home. “Stop Wazwaan to Stop deaths. Choice is ours. Nikah is sufficient. Your showing off may cause suffering,” said the doctor on Twitter.
A senior official said the government had limitations in acting against such celebrations.
“There are restrictions on the number of guests but we cannot enforce morality which is that celebrations should have been avoided in the wake of Covid tragedies… There is something like humanity which the people seem to be forgetting,” quipped a senior official on the condition of anonymity.
Meanwhile a war of words has erupted among the people of Kashmir over the wedding celebrations in times of Covid, with both the parties trying to prove the other wrong.
“Kashmir has become a mockery and no one looks bothered about how our image is getting affected due to such celebrations being held when someone in the neighborhood or relation is dying due to Covid19, but we’re busy eating Wazwan,” said a Kashmir University teacher on the condition of anonymity. |
