Chandigarh (Punjab) [India], October 14 (ANI): Parivartan, a non-government organisation, launched a COVID-19 awareness campaign with the display of a 36-feet long mask to promote social distancing practices in Chandigarh.
"Today we have organised a mask campaign in order to raise public awareness during COVID-19 pandemic. Our aim is to promote the importance of wearing a mask and practising social distancing in the current scenario," Renuka Sharma, president of Parivartan Welfare Association told ANI on Tuesday.
The 36-feet long mask was displayed for public acknowledgement and people were requested to pen their thoughts on it and raise a collective voice to wear masks in order to prevent coronavirus infection.
