"We have to act wisely for these 21 days to ensure the well-being of our entire nation. Let us all do our part, stay at home, stay safe and safeguard the health & future of our families & friends. We`ll come out of this stronger. #StayHomeIndia #JaiHind," tweeted fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah.Former India opener Virender Shewag posted a tweet saying that the next 21 days are very important in the history of our nation. "These 21 days are very important in the history of our nation & each one of us can play our part by just staying at our homes and maintaining distance from people. Please adhere to it strictly and we shall overcome this soon #CoronavirusLockdown," Sehwag said.
"Social distancing is extremely critical for each and everyone of us to follow for the next 21 days. Please stay at home & wash your hands regularly, and let`s break the chain. Please don`t panic about essentials, the central & state governments will ensure it. #IndiaFightsCorona," tweeted VVS Laxman. |
