This Is A Representative Image

Hola, Delhizens! Did you know that if you go out for a walk during this lockdown period you might be inviting trouble? Here’s all the information on why it’s not advisable to go out for a walk during the lockdown.

Here’s All The Info | The weather has taken a turn for the better in the past few days and there have been a lot of people who’re going out for a walk and thereby violating the lockdown orders. So, now the police have decided to post its personnel in several parks across the city. And, those who violate will face strict actions against themselves.

Did you know a person can be jailed for six months or will have to pay Rs 1,000 as a fine or both for disobeying rules and endangering another person’s life under Section 188 of the Indian Penal Code? Yep, and since the 29th of March, the police has booked cases against 153 people. The reason behind this strictness is that going out in groups defeats the whole purpose of the lockdown.

So, what are your thoughts on this?!
