The photo, shared by IAS officer Nitin Sangwan, shows the milkman’s innovative ‘jugaad’. In the picture, a customer can be seen standing few feet away from the milkman. The man, wearing protective gear like a mask and gloves, pours the milk in a funnel which is connected to a pipe. The customer holds a bowl just below the other end of the pipe from where the milk comes out. The technique ensures zero contact and checks all the boxes of social distancing.

“Good to see that some people go extra mile to keep themselves and others safe,” Sangwan praised the milkman.

“Let’s do basic minimum things of staying at home, wearing mask and keeping social distance even if we cannot go an extra mile like this innovative milkman,” he added in the caption.
