Amid the coronavirus outbreak, several precautionary measures have been advised and one of them is maintaining a distance of at least one metre with others. In fact, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has also asked metro commuters to maintain this distance. Commuters have been asked to ensure alternate seats remain vacant and even standing in the metro has been prohibited. However, should you find anyone not obeying these rules, here’s what you can do. You can perform the ‘Corona Mukt Aasan’ suggested by former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag on Twitter.
