The entire world has come to a standstill thanks to the proliferation of the pandemic that is the novel Coronavirus COVID-19. From International borders to flights to schools, colleges, malls, gyms, sporting events, everything has been put on the backburner as the world braces for a lockdown in a bid to counter the proliferation.
Coronavirus has once proved that it is not the illiterate which forms a part of the problem, it is the irresponsible entitled individuals, who cause the most amount of havoc. And, India is also witnessing the same. People are keeping the rules at bay and posing a threat to humanity by not reporting their foreign travel history or roaming around recklessly despite being tested positive.

The veteran Indian commentator, Harsha Bhogle took to Twitter to slam the recklessness. He said that he is disappointed by the fact that so many people are trying their best at being ‘stupid’ by roaming and partying around recklessly. Harsha also expected that act of such selfishness from a few people is enough to bring down the fight against the WHO-credited pandemic.
In his tweet, Bhogle wrote: “It is so disappointing when so many people are trying so hard and stupid, literate people coming from infected areas go around partying. A million people can do right but it requires a few silly people to lose the fight. Let us stay vigilant. We are in this together.”
