Chennai, April 18

It was a short-lived enjoyment for a 29-year-old man and his friend after they cooked and consumed what they called the “Corona Virundhu” (‘Corona Feast’) in Tamil Nadu’s Thanjavur district, police said on Thursday.

“On Wednesday, a couple of people assembled on the outskirts of Kabisthalam, cooked and ate food, sitting in close quarters when the Covid-19 lockdown was in force,” a police official told IANS.
