Industrialist Rajiv Bajaj has been very vocal about the COVID-19-induced lockdown since the start. Expressing his view on the lockdown today, during a dialogue with Rahul Gandhi, Bajaj said, in the process of flattening the infection curve, the Indian government flattened the GDP curve.
Managing director of Bajaj Auto, said, “We had a quasi lockdown.” He added the government should have ideally looked at the middle path rather than opting for a porous lockdown. “Business should have been allowed to continue.” He added a lockdown without a strategy failed the whole process.
Bajaj added the idea of drawing infection to death is hurting the country in a big way. While precautionary measures are good, the idea of planting fear in minds of people can have a negative impact.
