The second wave of Covid-19 is still cresting but by now we have all been touched by its terrors, and all too many of us by its sorrows—and the dismal realisation that we are in the midst of a recurring nightmare, a tragedy foretold. Here, we expose the sorry tale of neglect, apathy and failure of our political leadership. The institutional collapse and bureaucratic cowardice that facilitated super-spreader religious festivals and the political carnival of an eight-phase election campaign even as the second wave of a pandemic was breaking. The narcissism that enabled our leadership to ignore the warnings of expert groups. Their inability to form bipartisan alliances between the Centre and the states in the middle of a national calamity. Now that some of the loudest voices in the land have gone quiet, the government’s silence over the anguished and angry questions being raised over its management of Covid’s second wave can be deafening. Our reports offer some answers to these questions and suggestions from experts on how to find a way out of this continuing tragedy of errors. Most of all, we need action from the government—and fast.

The darkest tale of a victory declared prematurely comes from Greek mythology. At the end of the Trojan War, the attacking Greeks abandoned a 10-year-long siege of the city-state of Troy and sailed away, leaving behind a giant wooden horse. The relieved defenders, falsely believing they had won, carted the horse inside the city. As the Trojans slept, Greek warriors slipped out of their hideout within the horse and opened the city’s gates to its destruction.
It could well be a metaphor for where India was at the beginning of this year. As the first wave receded in February, we believed Covid had left for good and resumed our daily life, shedding masks and the social distancing protocols doctors and scientists had mandated, oblivious to the prospect of a second wave darkening the horizon. In January this year, the government all but declared victory. Our vaccination programme went awry with the government’s misplaced priorities.
