Let the govt decide: Arun Mandola

The government should take this decision and we should start something like self-quarantining on World Environment Day. Sometimes it becomes difficult to breathe. Now, no sound pollution and the vision is clear, thanks to the lockdown.

It’s true that the lockdown brought positive changes. However, a mandatory lockdown is not what I support. There should be strict rules for industries and individuals to control pollution. And those rules need to be implemented strictly.

Reduce activities: Dev Joshi

We can’t go for a complete lockdown because our economy will suffer. We talk about the environment, but once we get back to our normal life, we forget about it. Nothing will change unless we understand the importance of nature.
