Caravan of death rolls on Passing away of several important personalities has been reported during the period of Ramazan converging with the peak of Corona pandemic in India. By M A Siraj| Updated: 10th May 2021 10:37 pm IST Depredations of COVID-19 have snatched away several precious lives from us in the recent days, especially during 2021 Ramazan. The second wave of Corona virus infection has taken a heavy toll of lives across the nation. Common men and women are falling victim to it by dozens in every town and city, but it has been unsparing in its assault and has ruined lives regardless of class and caste. It has been startling to find deaths caused in families which had access to the elite hospitals and state-of-the-art medical facilities. In certain cities, the spaces for obituary advertisements in newspapers have outstripped the space devoted to commercial ones. It is needless to say that only those who can afford to pay announce the death of near, dear and important ones in the newspapers.
