To enforce the nation wide lockdown due to novel coronavirus outbreak, Mangaluru police in association with Ramakrishna Mission has launched an innovative campaign to create awareness, reports Udayavani.
Those who are found of violating the lockdown rules, are made to hold a placard, "I am guilty. I have violated the lockdown orders” by the police.
This joint effort between the police and members of the Ramakrishna mission has been done as many people are breaking the lockdown rules and are roaming on streets.

Also, a WhatsApp group has been created with the name “Team against Covid-19” to spread awareness on coronavirus and educate people on the importance of social distancing and sanitisation.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
