COVID-19: Raveena Tandon starts campaign to stop attacks on medics
Actress also urged people not to spread rumours about the coronavirus
Actress Raveena Tandon has come up with a social media campaign #JeetegaIndiaJeetengeHum (India will win, we will win) to stop the spread of rumours amid the COVID-19 crisis, and to also urge people not to attack frontline workers.
Several health care workers in India have been attacked as they battle to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus. So, Tandon has made a special video in which she is seen appealing to people to understand the severe health crisis and also appreciate the crucial role of doctors amid the COVID-19 outbreak.
“I feel it’s extremely important for all of us to do our bit by encouraging the real heroes, our doctors and nurses who are stepping out every day and fighting this deadly coronavirus. They haven’t met their families to keep us and our families safe and that’s why through my campaign — #JeetegaIndiaJeetengeHum — I request everyone to give these medical forces their due respect and at the same time not spread false rumours. I’m hopeful we will all see the light sooner together,” she said.
