We are slowly trying to go out and gradually our lives are moving ahead, we are noticing more people on roads, shops, parlors are opening, even there are talks about opening some hotels, and we even notice crowds of people which ingest in our minds that our life is coming back to normal. But this isn’t the case.”Adding, he said, “The numbers of infected people have started rising; the number of deaths due to the virus has also witnessed a surge in recent times. We need to adhere to all safety norms and adopt proper precautionary measures.”
