Chikungunia!

A large-scale campaign and mobilisation has been made to get rid of mosquitoes because according to the experts, it is responsible for this disease called Chikungunia. This has ruined the lives of people in Mauritius and elsewhere. There are people who are still suffering. Therefore, it is deemed very dangerous.

But what do the experts say about alcohol?

Is it less harmful than these mosquitoes? Everyone knows the havoc that it causes in the society. That is why the person can no longer do anything. He becomes a burden on the society. He renders the life of his wife and children miserable. How many accidents are occurring due to this? And how many of our youngsters are losing their lives on a weekly basis, thereby leaving a whole family to suffer after them. They are enemies for one and all. Therefore, when will we decide to get rid of this enemy?

Similarly, casinos and discos are calamities for the society. There is no benefit besides a temporary enjoyment that destroys your future and the future of your child forever. These are things that should not be present in a society that wants to progress. Thus, we should see how to get rid of these kinds of Chikungunia, which are functioning with the blessing of our leaders.
