I am not happy with the way this govt has handled the economy and this pandemic, but I support the PM in this decision and the police in their violent enforcement today.
People are being too callous. They are going about the city as though everything is normal. Some are celebrating religious festivals, some are going out on vacations and 'long drives'.
We are poor country with 4x the US population, packed so tightly even 7Zip would be put to shame. We don't have money or medical infrastructure to fight this at later stages.
FYI - Essential supplies are being kept open, govt services are being kept open, food delivery is being kept open. Free groceries (rice, dal etc)are being given to people who need it.
I pray that our country survives this without too many deaths, even as an atheist, because that's the only thing I can do now.
