India is under complete lockdown till April 15 due to the coronavirus outbreak and the government is repeatedly asking the citizens to remain indoors and go out of their houses only if very necessary. However, there are some people, especially men, who are finding it very difficult to stay at home for so long and some of them are even coming out on road without any necessary work. The Indian police is working very hard to ensure that there is no one on the road and only people with emergency needs should be out of their houses.
A Punjab policeman has come up with a great solution to keep such men at home as he has told women that if their husbands are getting bored in the house, make them do household chores, ask them to wash clothes, get the house cleaned and this way, corona will also get cleaned.
He was heard saying that the Prime Minister and the chief minister of the state have asked everyone to stay at home and people are already seeing what is happening in Italy. He further requested all the sisters (woman of the house) that if their husbands are able to live comfortably in house, make them do household chores.
Here is the video:

Corona bringing about gender equity.. men need to whole heartedly participate in daily chores to understand and appreciate the time and effort it requires to keep a house in order 365 days 24×7
