With the deadly coronavirus tightening its grip around the world, people have been urged to take precautionary measures like social distancing. However, #Covidiot has been trending on Twitter with people calling those out who are defying the rules of self-isolation and are still choosing to go out in public. Even when Prime Minister Narendra Modi called for ‘Janta Curfew’ on March 22, and suggested that people should come out in their balconies at 5pm to cheer for the people with essential jobs, some “ignorant” people decided to start marching on streets in huge groups.

It will be #COVIDIOT like these who hamper #IndiaFightsCorona. It's ironic that human idiocy & senselessness endanger the lives of fellow citizens in India as much as the virus itself. Shame.#COVIDー19#Corona#coronavirus#IndiaFightsCorona#coronavirusinindia#JantaCurfew https://t.co/dcKTY4Z4w5
