Lockdown, Day 61: New normal, new norms
As
India gears up to resume domestic flights from tomorrow, after a
two-month lockdown, three states - Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal -
seem to be in disagreement with the Centre's flight plan.
In
other bad news, you may have to change your shopping habits as 'first
buy, then try' seems to be coming into vogue as shopkeepers begin to
prize sanitation over customer satisfaction.
Here are the other update from the day...
