Résumé :

On 13 May 2021, all of the Indian newspapers and media broadcast the singular ghastly tale of hundreds of dead bodies floating in the Ganges and the rivers of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. Governments and states were fraught over the numbers and causes of these dead bodies, resulting from COVID-19, further unfolding the nation’s incapacity to mourn the loss of unaccountable human lives. It was a murderous end, leaving behind innumerable aching hearts and tormented existences of children, parents, friends, lovers who had lost their loved ones, with a total denial of dignity in death to the bodies, as well as an abrasive disregard of the needs of the surviving families and friends in search of peace and closure in their loss. An utterly deplorable success of a system that subjugates human entities, their living and also their death.
