With pandemic Coronavirus or COVID-19 becoming a serious threat to the world, the government officials are taking some drastic steps by shutting down schools, public places, parks, theatres, shooting location just to prevent the spread of COVID-19 amongst the citizens. Nevertheless, transport service, media reporters, doctors, home delivery people and many more are still working amidst the Coronavirus scare. To express gratitude towards those people, on Thursday, PM Narendra Modi announced a Janta curfew on March 22 and has requested all the citizens to express their gratitude by going out on their balconies or standing at their doors and windows at 5 pm on March 22 and clapping, banging their plates or ringing bells.
