At a time when the country is battling a pandemic as deadly as Coronavirus and people are advised to stay inside their houses to stop it from spreading further, we also have some exceptions. The sad part here is those exceptions also include people that have the power to influence millions of us. At this point, we are talking about actor, singer and BJP leader Manoj Tiwari, who during his recent visit to Haryana’s Sonipat, was spotted, playing cricket with a streak of people but that wasn’t it about it.

The clip shared by Manoj Tiwari sees him playing cricket at Sheikhpura Unique Cricket Stadium in Sonipat, Haryana, with a couple of other people. The politician was decked up in a cricket uniform, along with a helmet and safety pads on. However, we couldn’t find him wearing a mask or for that matter, abiding by the social distancing rules. It goes without saying that these two rules have been mandatorily issued by the government of India for our safety. A couple of pictures from the same, which emerged on social media, too, didn’t see Tiwari wearing a mask.

Taking to his social media, Manoj shared a video of him playing cricket with the caption, “ईश्वर सबको खेल भावना से ओतप्रोत रखे.. सब स्वस्थ रहें.. सबकी immunity मज़बूत रहे.. (May God keep everyone filled with sports spirit. May everyone be healthy .. Everyone's immunity should be strong )”

Take a look:


While Manoj’s intentions were pure, his timing and ways of doing it were quite risky. A fan replied under his tweet by writing, “Sir was it so imp at this time. Nt sure if u took all the required permissions. I saw one videos where you did not have mask n also no social distancing,” while another user commented, “Waah sir ji jab aap hi aise karoge to aam janta kya karega.”
