Lucknow: Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday urged people to come forward for examination if they have symptoms of coronavirus.
He also urged COVID-19 patients to cooperate with the healthcare workers treating them in hospitals.
कोरोनाकाल में जिन्हें भी वायरस से पीड़ित होने के लक्षण दिखें उन्हें स्वयं जाँच के लिए आगे आना चाहिए व उन डॉक्टरों का सहयोग और सम्मान करना चाहिए जो अपना जीवन दाँव पर लगाकर आपकी जान बचा रहे हैं. सरकार को भी लोगों को डराकर नहीं बल्कि विश्वास में लेकर सभी के साथ आगे बढ़ना चाहिए.
