Netizens were overjoyed at this display of commitment and duty towards one’s work. They welcomed the cop with as much enthusiasm on social media, calling him a “Corona warrior.”

In these testing times, as many of us stay home and social distance, it’s important to remember that not everyone is getting that opportunity. For police officers, this is the time to perform and stay more vigilant than ever. Especially in a city like Mumbai which is so huge and comes with its own challenges. In fact, Mumbai Police is going beyond its traditional role and also keeping people informed through their social media. They regularly share memes that urge people to practice social distancing and maintain hygiene to keep the chance of coronavirus at bay.
