Mysore/Mysuru: Asking the citizens to save themselves from COVID-19 rather than looking at ways from escaping Police, City Police Commissioner Dr. Chandragupta said that it was important to follow the lockdown regulations when the country was battling in full might against the deadly pandemic.
Speaking to SOM, Dr. Chandragupta said that it was important for the people to understand the purpose behind the implementation of the nationwide lockdown.
