Are we ready to adapt to the new normalcy arising in the middle of the fight for COVID19? Let’s face it, we can’t be in the lock-down forever. Our lives can’t be stalled at home for the upcoming months. We have to face the situation while keeping in mind the necessary action to protect oneself & society.
Lock-down 4.0 has extended till 31st May & gave relaxation in all zones(green, orange, red). Few of the important ones are as follows-
- Wearing masks would be mandatory
- Buses & local transport will be operational with restriction to the no.of people in it
- Personalized vehicles can be seen on the road with the limit to the no.of people

- E-commerce has resumed its services in all the zones delivering both essential & non-essential goods
- Offices & industries will resume their work with a limit to the employees
These are some of the important updates as per the lock-down 4.0 is concerned. Here, we can see a bigger view of the new normalcy that we all have to learn to live with.
#Add masks to your closet

Since wearing masks has become a necessity in order to protect ourselves & society, adding masks to your closet will become a new normal going forward. All the industries have started manufacturing masks & sanitizers. Especially the fashion industry will not stay behind in catering to your fashion needs, they have come up with designer colorful masks for all your owned outfits.
#VocalForLocal
This is the new initiative by our PM Narendra Modi to strengthen the local businesses considering the uplift of micro, small & medium scaled economy. This will give our country India, a new vision & rise to diversity. We all should be vocal about our local products as it will help us in reviving our beautiful tradition & will give us an edge in the competitive global market.

#What’s in your bag?

People have started moving out of their homes for work, or to take exams in schools & for other necessary work. It is important to keep a check on the things you carry in your bag. Following are the essentials you should keep in your bag before stepping out-
- Sanitizers
- Extra masks(to give if someone is in need)
- Essential medication
- Handkerchief
- Avoid carrying cash & accepting cash from the vendors. Switch to digital payment mode to avoid direct contact with people
#Focus on Sustainability

Our primary focus will now be towards a sustainable environment & to make India a sustainable country. I am sure, we all will work towards making fashion more sustainable by using the right fabric & reusing old clothes in a redesigned way. More focus on respecting our mother nature, making new strategies towards minimizing pollution & planting more trees. Corporates will look for a sustainable workplace, govt sectors are trying their best to implement the right source to use. This is how we will be walking towards a new normal & a new life.
#Our Responsibility
Looking & living through the COVID19 situation has definitely taught us a lot of things. We have become more focused on health & hygiene, more revered toward the elderly people, learned to spend time with family, & the most important thing is that we can all start again from zero with a new perspective towards a better India. It’s our responsibility to protect our mother nature, work for the well-being of our country & always protect one another.
