The second wave of Corona is massive and every state in the country is struggling to handle the crisis. The hike in the Corona cases with each passing day has become a matter of concern for one and all. Already, many states announced night curfews and weekend lockdowns. Delhi government is no exception. Chief Minister Aravind Kejriwal went a step ahead to announce a lockdown in the national capital from Monday night to April 26 morning. As soon as the announcement was made, people thronged to the liquor shops to stock up on alcohol for the next week. One of the woman’s comments at a liquor shop in Delhi is now going viral.
In a viral video on social media, we can see an elderly woman talking about liquor. Speaking to the news agency ANI, she claimed that the alcohol will help her to fight Coronavirus.
“Hum lene aaye hain do botal. Isliye lene aaye hain, kyunki alcohol hai isme. Injection faayda nahi karegi. Alcohol faayda karegi. Jitne daaru peete hain, utne bande sahi rahenge. Jitne sab sharaabi hain. Toh, sharabiyon ko farq padhega. (I came here to buy two bottles. Injection will not help but Alcohol will. Those who drink, will stay fit),” she told.
The incident took place outside a shop in Shivpuri Geeta Colony, in the National capital. She also told the media that she has been drinking alcohol since 35 years. “Yeh dawai se hume koi asar nahi hoga. Hume peg se asar hoga. Mereko 35 saal ho gaye peete huye, maine aaj tak koi bhi dose nahi li doosri (Medicine will not help me but A peg will. I have been drinking since 35 years and I haven’t taken any other dose),” she added.
The woman expressed her disappointment over the closure of liquor shops and told the media that the government should give exemption for the shops during the lockdown.
People in Delhi queued up to buy alcohol in the areas of Gole Market, Darya Ganj, Karol Bagh and Khan Market.
