COVID19: Lockdown Extension in India





“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” ―Martin Luther King, Jr.

Indian Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi extended the present lockdown until May 03, 2020. It is a step in the right direction to prevent coronavirus from spreading further. He outlined the following seven points:   
  1. Ensure the elderly take precautions.
  2. Follow social distancing, use homemade masks.
  3. Boost your immunity – look for guidelines issued by the Ayush ministry.
  4. Download and use the Aarogya Setu mobile app.
  5. Help the poor and the needy.
  6. Have empathy for people employed in your business.
  7. Respect coronavirus warriors including nurses and the medical workers.

Everyone must follow the guidelines. It is not the time to politicize the issue. Let us keep our political and ideological differences aside to save precious human lives. We must follow the guidelines strictly in the larger interests of the people and India. Express your gratitude to the frontline workers who are risking their lives to protect the people. Let us show to the coronavirus that we humans are much smarter, sharper and stronger.

“When the going gets tough, the tough get going.” —Joseph P. Kennedy

  1. What you said is right, Lock down means not

    to come out that doesn't mean that everyone

    should close there windows in home, close all

    doors in home, should be inside home. every

    one is misunderstanding, Prime minister

    have to give clarity that lock down means not

    to come out and walk on roads.

  2. మీరు చెప్పినది సరైనది, లాక్డౌన్ అంటే బయటకు రాకూడదు అంటే ప్రతి

    ఒక్కరూ ఇంట్లో కిటికీలు మూసివేయాలి, ఇంట్లో అన్ని తలుపులు

    మూసివేయాలి, ఇంటి లోపల ఉండాలి. ప్రతి ఒక్కరూ అపార్థం

    చేసుకుంటున్నారు, లాక్డౌన్ అంటే బయటకు వచ్చి రోడ్లపై నడవకూడదని

    ప్రధాని స్పష్టత ఇవ్వాలి. - MADDALI LAXMI SWETHA
