No Online Shopping

If you are thinking of doing some online shopping or waiting for a courier package for an order you placed a few days ago, we would urge you to not hold your breath. As the India lockdown kicks in today because of the Coronavirus pandemic, online stores are still not sure about how to procure supplies, how to deliver them to your home and what the specific guidelines for those processes are. As of now, Flipkart and Grofers, for instance, are unavailable for business. They aren’t the only ones. While Amazon is still offering what it claims are essential items, chances are you won’t get them either. There are multiple reasons why this is happening with the online shopping stores. First, India is in a first of its kind lockdown which means that more than 1.3 billion people have to stay indoors for the next 21 days, as announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi late yesterday. Secondly, there is no clarity on exactly what comprises “essential services” that the government insists are exempt—expect some clarity in the coming days. Third, online and offline stores aren’t exactly sure how the supplies for essentials would come in. And last but not least, the delivery executives for companies delivering these essential services will need to have clarity on whether their movement is allowed or not. And one of the biggest reasons for this is people have, arguably, done panic buying in the past few hours and days, which has put shopping websites and their delivery partners under tremendous weight to deliver the order while supplies may be restricted. Online Shoppings is completely closed for business. They say services have been temporarily suspended while promising to be back and urging everyone to stay home and stay safe. The company makes no promises on the timeline though, at this time.

21 Days Newspaper also Lockdown

The night after Prime Minister Modi’s announcement of a complete 21-day-long lockdown in view of COVID-19 pandemic across the country, many Indians woke up to the fact that newspapers were not delivered on their doorsteps.

PM Modi in his address to the nation on Tuesday evening announced a complete lockdown for 21 days to arrest the spread of the Coronavirus which has claimed 11 lives so far in India and the number of cases has spiked to 562. He, however, maintained that the essential supplies will be maintained and there will no shortage.

In view of the virus scare, many resident welfare associations in Delhi had already banned the entry of outsiders in the apartment societies, a move deemed necessary for social distancing. Some had even asked the vendors to stop delivering newspapers for some time as it may spread infection, even though there is no clarity if newspapers are carriers of the infection.

According to reports, no newspapers have been printed in the financial capital Mumbai for the third consecutive day today as the vendors refused to deliver newspapers over fears of contracting the infection.
