PHOTOS: Janta curfew in New Delhi and NCR, March 22 2020

Janta Curfew is being observed for 14 hours today, starting at 7 am. The announcement was made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his address to the nation on Thursday. During this voluntary self-restraint period, people are not expected to go out, not even for morning walk, or to ration shops. Though people are advised to stay home, essential services are not shut during this period. The government has also set up a page, where people can take the pledge to observe self-quarantine and get a certificate for same. So far, 412,398 people have taken the pledge, according to mygov.in. The number is increasing rapidly. The website has also divided the number of pledged based on age, gender and state. Most pledges (70.9 per cent) have been taken by those between 25 and 45 years of age. Men are ahead in taking the pledge when it comes to gender-based categorisation - the number stands at 71.6 per cent. (HT Photos)
