"Stay in your Den this weekend. Take care of yourself & the old folks. Let's make life hard for the virus. And let's whistle to express our gratitude to the relentless fighters of the virus. PS. Try doing without using the hands. Tomo 5 PM. #WhistlePoduAt5 #JantaCurfew #COVID2019," CSK tweeted on Saturday.

People are advised to come out in their balcony on March 23, at 5 pm and clap for those who are fighting against COVID-19.

Currently, India has registered over 300 positive cases of Coronavirus. The situation is worse in Italy and India fears a similar effect here. That's why the citizens need to stay alert and follow every possible measure.
