Taking to his official Twitter account, the 2011 World Cup-winner explained the importance of the step and its need in the hour but in his very own style. Sehwag also said that people can cut that time by playing indoor games like Carrom, Ludo ,Saanp Seedhi (Snake and Ladders) with their family. Janata Curfew: Virat Kohli, KL Rahul & Others Laud PM Modi’s Initiative to Fight Coronavirus Fears.

Ab woh samay aur mauka mila hai.  Ghar mein Carrom, Ludo ,Saanp Seedhi khelkar purani yaadein taza kijiye,” wrote the legendary cricketer on the micro-blogging website.
