Be it doctors, health workers, policemen, or even sanitation personnel; several units have been relentlessly braving the current crisis created by the novel coronavirus. Putting themselves in the frontline to fight the dreaded situation, these individuals have been fetching solidarity and admiration from different corners of the country. Citizens clapping in unison as part of Janta Curfew, for example, was one of the many ways through which India thanked these “corona warriors”. As tributes continue to pour in for these units, Araku MLA Chetti Palguna thanked the police in his own way.

Expressing gratitude to the police service in the current scenario, Chetti Palguna touched the feet of an Assistant Sub Inspector in Visakhapatnam.

On Wednesday, Mr Palguna interacted with a few police officers in Araku in the wake of the nationwide lockdown. In a video that did rounds on social media, the YSRCP MLA can be seen touching the feet of a police officer and thanking him with a namaste, to which, the latter responds with a salute.
