People have set their faces free of the masks. In Delhi, citizens are seen roaming around the capital markets and Square intersections without masks.
Post the relaxation of lockdown; donning a mask was made mandatory in the absence of which the government levied heavy penalties. Campaigns were conducted to educate individuals about the importance of masks. But all of this has seemed to come to a pause now.
On interacting with the people, various reasons to avoid masks came across like ‘they just forgot to wear it, they’ve removed it and some say now that the vaccine is out, they don’t think donning a mask is important, and some are following the trend of bidding adieu.
