The government of India must declared Emergency to battle the coronavirus outbreak, Bollywood veteran Rishi Kapoor opined recently. He took to Twitter to express his views. "Dear fellow Indians. We must and have to declare EMERGENCY. Look at what's happening all over the country! If the TV is to believed, people are beating policemen and medical staff! There is no other way to contain the situation. It is only good for all of us. Panic is setting in," he tweeted. Many on social media, however, don't like the idea.
Now Rishi has yet again given a suggestion to the government and said that liquor stores should open every day for a few hours. “Think. Government should for sometime in the evening open all licensed liquor stores. Don’t get me wrong. Man will be at home only what with all this depression, uncertainty around. Cops,doctors,civilians etc... need some release. Black mein to sell ho hi raha hai,” he tweeted.

State governments desperately need the money from the excise. Frustration should not add up with depression. As it is pee to rahe hain legalize kar do no hypocrisy. My thoughts.

Well, we wonder what the government has to say on this!
Recently, despite the actor warning netizens not to make fun of his lifestyle recently, social media users commented about his alleged alcohol consumption. To which he had furiously tweeted: "Anyone cracking jokes about my country or on my lifestyle, will be deleted. Be aware and warned. This is a serious matter. Help us to tide over the situation."
The government and PM Narendra Modi recently announced a 21-day lockdown to combat the spread of COVID-19.
