    Alram bell to our politicians. Do not give unnessary interview. Avoid crowd. Even media is in risk. So if you want to convey any message use Facebook. Eg. Our MLA V V Kamath.

    People,

    Corona Virus does not differentiate between Powerful and Powerless...Rich and Poor people...

    Try to self isolate....even if you have to mingle with people ...keep a safe distance of 1-2 Meters...Wear Glows and mask wherever possible...Wash your hands often...And don't touch your nose after touching un-known objects...

    These are few things you can do to protect yourself and others in Society people...

    ...Tak..Takk...
