“The moment I heard about the nationwide lockdown imposed because of the coronavirus outbreak, I was shocked. I had plans to go for a vacation along with my wife in the first week of April and suddenly everything came to a halt. Now that the lockdow has also been extended further, I had to cancel my plans for this year. Usually I am quite occupied with work and especially in trying times like these, I had to be even more responsible so I am continuing my job despite the lockdown.

My connection with each of the families to whom I deliver milk is an emotional one. People have to be inside their homes. Unlike me, they cannot move out and if I don’t deliver milk, they would suffer and I will not let that happen!

Every day, my wife cautions me against venturing out as news channels are showing how thousands of people have died across the world and about the increasing number of cases in our country. I know the seriousness of the situation outside and I am taking all  necessary precautions by being extra careful these days. Every twenty minutes, I wash my hands. I wear the face mask whenever I go out and maintain distance while delivering the milk. I take a bath as soon as I return home from work. Even the police officers are extremely supportive. They give me an entry pass and always check with me about my health condition. We all have to be extremely careful indeed. It’s a tough situation outside and the only way we can fight this out is by following all the precautionary measures even after the lockdown ends for few months. We must all adapt to these changes in our lives from now!”
