Janta Curfew & Timer

Prime Minister Modi has asked us all to observe Janta Curfew on Sunday March 22, 2020 from 7am to 9pm. Personally, I think it’s a primer to future lockdowns that might happen if spread of Corona Viruses increases. It’s a nice initiative to enforce Social Distancing. Hope you all observe the Janta Curfew and do your bit.
