Nationwide Lockdown on 24th March 2020. True sad story of Middle class Family...

It is very difficult to live in this era of web series,
But by daring a little, I have tried to put a true incident in front of you...

A month of march was going to end...

And I suddenly scream.

Mummy, Papa, Sonal please switched on the TV or start a news channel. 

and see what was going to be happening...
I just notify in my oppo... there is a Public curfew on 22 March.

Even this type of situation happen to you that day...and the same situation happens to me...

I know why PM takes such types of decisions...

At that time, I was very happy in my mind, Now I will take full time with my family and that too without going out. 

OUR PM MODI Announced on TV...

The Janata Curfew was a 14-hour curfew (from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.) that was scheduled on 22 March 2020, prior to the total lockdown.

At 5 p.m. that day, all citizens were asked to stand in their doorways, balconies or windows, and clap their hands or ring their bells in appreciation for the professionals delivering these essential services.

Good Decision...

I just ask sonal and she also agrees with PM Decisions...

22nd March 2020. Janta Curfew Day...

Morning 6 A.M. 
As usual I Woke up at 6 o'clock.

I quickly brushed off and went to bathe and after the bath I just sat in front of God for a while and pray... 

It was 7.15 am at morning...

I looked down from the window immediately after having my tea breakfast.

What a sight...
Not even a single person was seen below. Everybody had followed the rules strictly.

Papa, just look... 
Have you ever seen such a great scene in your life?

He said son, I have seen such a scene for the first time in my life, it is a historic decision of our Prime Minister...

The whole day went out and it was five in the evening...

Our whole family is ready with a plate and salute to the corona warrior.

Public curfew day was over...

On 24 March 2020, the Government of India under Prime Minister Narendra Modi ordered a nationwide lockdown for 21 days, limiting movement of the entire 1.3 billion population of India as a preventive measure against the COVID-19 pandemic in India.

It was ordered after a 14-hour voluntary public curfew on 22 March.

We are very scared...

We started talking, if the Prime Minister has taken such a big decision, then this disease will be very big indeed.

I had to think about my family...

LOCKDOWN 1.0 was started.(25 March 2020 – 14 April 2020 (21 days))

On 25 March, the first day of the lockdown, nearly all services and factories were suspended. People were hurrying to stock essentials in some parts.

On 26 March, finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced a ₹170,000 crore (US$24 billion) stimulus package to help those affected by the lockdown.

On 27 March, the Reserve Bank of India announced a slew of measures to help mitigate the economic impacts of the lockdown.

Everything was going as usual. I am enjoying such a lockdown with my family.

Days passed and we started waiting for the opening of Lockdown...

As the end of the initial lockdown period came near, many state governments expressed their decision to extend it till the end of April.

And LOCKDOWN 2.0 was started. (15 April 2020 – 3 May 2020 (19 days))

And now I started having strain...

When I am more worried... I just asked mom what to do now?

No Income & how to survive?

Because my earnings now stopped...

Mother said, son don't worry, I will sell my gold but will not let you break...

I had a few savings that I was slowly finishing.

There were tears in my eyes not for myself but for those who are laborers and poor.

How will those people live and how will they survive...

Corona ruined our economy. Break all the big industries...

But most of all, it breaks the common man...Because rich men can take care of themselves

But how will a poor person live?

Corona forced to kill the common man.

This was the right time and big opportunity for rich people to came for the poor to help...

But is it happens? I just asked you a question... 

Many people helped, but some people raised their hands in such a difficult time...

Shame on such people who are not able to work at the right time...

As the days passed, the laborers were forced to walk towards their homes and that too without water and eats...

Totally helpless...

Whenever something happens like this, many peoples blame their government...

But why do people not think that there are some powerful people in our society who can help people but those people never do this...

The eyes of such people will never open...

I share all such things with my wife. And she was agreed with me and my thoughts.

As a common man, some time I thought I could die, 
But later, the face of my family comes in front of me and I stop there...

But no one knows how long this series will last.

It's not that we were just sad,

Even in this atmosphere of sorrow, all our families were one.
And this is the only way we were able to cope with any turn of life.

I have a huge advantage of this lockdown too...

I learn many things like COOKING... I cook and make everyone happy.

And enjoyed the Ludo King a lot.

I also made the Corona app in this Lockdown period which helps to find daily corona updates and that too on a live basis...

Despite all this, one thing was lacking...MONEY.

Somebody rightly said...that the biggest motivation in the world is just to earn money.

Some people just expect from you,  but don't believe in giving...

And we can't call it motivation. Am I right?

It is difficult to live without money. And this was happening to those labor and poor people...

Our biggest problem is.... our system...

And no one can stop it. Because the gap between rich and poor in the society is always increasing...

The rich are becoming richer and the poor middleman is dying.

This is a bitter truth that we cannot deny.

I know, I made you all very emotional...But it was important to say.

Lockdown was not getting over, in fact it was increasing...

By the time I was telling this story to all of you, LOCKDOWN 3.0 was announced.

Yes, LOCKDOWN 3.0 was started. (4 May 2020 – 17 May 2020 (14 days))

I sat with my whole family and started sharing some thoughts...

Momma... look Lockdown 3.0 has started now.

Mom said, Yes beta I know...I know what you are trying to say?

Mother understood everything in my mind...

My mom said everything before I said anything. From today onwards we will control a little in our expenses.

Cook vegetables once, Will eat less and face this difficult time...

I cried in front of them. I am helpless Mom, Dad, Sonal...I can't do anything. 

I have some money but we have to run it for a few months...

Never mind son, we will live this round too... My papa said.

I was trying to keep my family happy, And to some extent I tried to do all this.

Income was absolutely zero, But the expenses were daily. Banks EMI, Electricity, Gas bill, Vegetable expense, Grocery...

But there was only one option to bring it, Finish saving.

Nobody helped us...
And yes, no one would have helped you too...

The fourth phase of Lockdown had started. 
(18 May 2020 to end on 31 May 2020)

On 17 May, the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) extended the lockdown for a period for two weeks beyond 18 May, with additional relaxations.

We got some relaxation here. A lot of shops have opened now.

Life has started running on the character again...

Today I have a question in my mind. And I also know that no one will have a proper answer.

A terrible epidemic like CORONA is going to come in the future also,
But will this line of wealth and poverty ever break?

The answer is NO...

Because the rich will never want poor people to move forward in their life...

And a common man will die by walking his life...
Because he can save as much as his income.

And the income of the common man will never grow and he will die one day while struggling with life.

I would like to give a positive message to all of these...
Make yourself so capable...Make yourself rich

And make yourself so strong that you can help with any need...

Man does not get rich with money, Man becomes rich with his thoughts...

At last... 

The bad news is that this corona is increasing day by day
Today, Corona cases in India are more than 1,30,000.
The death toll reached 4000.
And more than 6000 cases of Corona are coming every day.

From this it seems that this corona will go away completely from India at the end of this year.

But, Due to coronavirus, a piece of great news has also come out.

Rivers have become cleaner as industries are closed due to the lockdown. The quality of air has significantly improved during the lockdown.

I would like to say while going,
Human thinking is more dangerous than corona...

So we have to change our thinking and help the needy people of our society.

That's all I will say.

Sorry for taking your precious time
THANK YOU VERY MUCH...LOVE YOU ALL...
