Th government has imposed lockdown as mass gatherings increase the risk of transmission of the deadly virus. All the governments and experts are of opinion that social distancing is the only way to curb the spread of virus. But this act of people gathering has risked their own lives and their contacts.
When Mamata Banerjee was asked about the Jamaat cases in Bengal, she yelled, ‘Don’t ask communal questions’ and walked out in a huff.
