Chandigarh, March 24

Confined to their houses with the imposition of curfew in the state, it is time for lawmakers to do something different. Often surrounded by large gatherings, amid their supporters and party workers, the MLAs are happy pursuing their hobbies — be it cooking, gardening, playing snooker or chess, or spending time with their pets.

Happy to be among his family members, Faridkot MLA Kikki Dhillon said he visited his stud farm to see his horses. “I am in touch with panchayats and district authorities over a campaign against Covid,” he said.

Young and energetic Zira MLA Kulbir Singh Zira tried his hand at cooking as the official cook had been given leave. Gidderbaha MLA Amrinder Singh Raja Warring played chess and did gardening.

Gurdaspur MLA Barindermeet Pahra preferred to play snooker, apart from participating in a sanitation campaign in his area.
