People are asked to follow certain precautions such as self-isolation and basic hygiene practices to ensure their safety. Most offices, stores, transport services etc. barring a few pertinent ones have also been asked to remain shut considering the seriousness and extent of the spread. The quarantine while imposed for people's safety has left everyone anxious and worried about a number of things from their income, job instability, daily ration. Considering the difficult times we're, citizens are looking up to the government to come up with solutions to these problems.
