They are struggling

Ved Prakash Bhardwaj

We often heard the word straggling, like straggling star, straggling woman, and many more. We all assume that a common man always straggling in life, whether it is a question of job, financial stability, or family. The word ‘struggle’ is associated with a common man, not the VIP’s or persons those have a secure life, like industrialists, businessman, politicians, and others. They are thrilling, shining, or fling, but not straggling. Struggling is a character of the general public. We never assume that the market can be straggling. We are habitual to see the market, whether we are part of that or not, is share market or consumer market, always shining. Even when they are thrilling, they shining. During the last three months, due to Covide-19 pandemics, all commercial and industrial activities are stopped, share market thrilled so many times.

Now lockdown is unlocked, Industries has started to swipe smoke. The shutters of the shops have been waked up. Dummies are again deposited on the pavement. Everyone is on duty as a soldier on the war front.  Everything is happening, but nothing is happening. The customer is missing like the horny from the head of the ass.

Shopkeepers are upset, they are struggling. The government gives so many relaxations but their account is not over flooded by money. Since the morning till the evening, they are watching the gate… just coming, they will come, but he does not come. The cash box looks like an orphan. nobody doesn’t know where all customers are gone.  The customer has really become God, who is not going to see. God, means customers also don’t know what to do. The government put money in the pocket of the industrialists, put the money in the pocket of the businessman, but forgotten the common man. He is sitting in the house with his empty pocket. He is shaking in the house, shopkeepers in the market. Both are struggling. The government is stable. 

During the lockdown, most peoples lost their job. The workers became useless. In a country like India, where two-thirds of the population lives with a temporary arrangement of job and income, and one-third population habitual to sacrifice for a one-time meal, the market is not a big concern. The market is only for those who have a pocket, full of money.
