The coronavirus outbreak has shut down the whole world. Many governments have announced lockdowns in their respective countries. The virus has now affected more than 12,00,000 people while nearly 66,000 have died. All the events, tournaments and Olympics have been put on hold for an indefinite time. 

India is also undergoing a lockdown for 21 days. March 22 was a memorable day for the country as all the citizens came together to salute the corona warriors at 5 pm by clapping or banging utensils.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi requested citizens to perform this task in his third address to the nation during the lockdown period.
