Covid cases are on the rise and countries are heading towards a lockdown again. Hence, we all need to be vigilant for everyone’s safety, including our families, said Dr Raj Kumar, MLA, Chabbewal.

He was addressing a meeting of Corona Task Force (CTF), a team constituted for spreading awareness and distributing essential items to counter the Covid-19 pandemic, which has been reactivated owing to a rising number of cases. He emphasised that personal hygiene, use of masks and sanitisers, maintaining social distance were the key factors to save ourselves. People have developed a relaxed attitude towards the disease and that’s more alarming. Hence, the responsibility of the CTF members has increased. He motivated participants asking them to educate people around about the severity of the pandemic.

Masks and sanitisers were distributed among participants during the meeting.
