Srinagar: Qurat Masoodi a kashmiri social worker today advocated that it is high time for the administration to pay attention towards the conditions of these quarantine wards. These places should be as comfortable and cozy as ones home, so that people won’t flee from these wards.
Government has to provide all the basic necessities at these places which will make parents satisfied that their kids are safe out there and won’t use any influence or VIP powers to take their children out of these quarantine wards.
Kashmir being an conservative society making the concept such as quarantine difficult for practicality. Kashmiri parents being way more protective for their children are not ready to send their kids to such places that are much more like prison. The quarantine wards set in kashmir are in pathetic condition which makes it difficult for the students coming back from abroad to stay there as they get the feel of already being covid-19 patients when nothing is confirmed yet.
Being a social worker Qurat Masoodi appeals people not to treat these people who are in quarantine as downtrodden rather we should encourage and support them to make them stay in quarantine happy and comfortable. Moreover it is her appeal to all the hoteliers that they should open their hotels as quarantine centres as it is on times like this when we have to share our responsibility to take a stand and work with the government.
