Nashik/ Delhi: Amid distressing stories emerging from all over the country as coronavirus lockdown continues, a heart-warming video from Maharashtra shows a group of policemen in Nashik giving a heart-warming reception to a newlywed couple.
In nearly two-minute clip, shared on photo-sharing app Instagram, an official- surrounded by several other cops - can be seen congratulating the newlyweds on loudspeaker. The couple is standing in the balcony of their house. The policemen then play a song from a Bollywood movie as the cops - standing in a group - clap for the couple.
Some people in the neighbourhood are seen recording the video on their mobile phones.
"Congratulating the couple who got "married at home" in Nashik Police Style!" the post shared on Instagram by Chief Minster's office reads.
"A couple decided to get married at home, without violating any lockdown rules, so the @nashikpolice had their own way to celebrate and congratulate the newlyweds," it further reads.
Maharashtra has recorded the highest number of cases in India - nearly 13,000 COVID-19 patients and 548 deaths. Across India, the COVID-19 count has crossed the 40,000 mark, nearly 1,300 people have died.
Thousands of weddings have been cancelled across the world in the last few months due to coronavirus as people were told to stay indoors to check the spread of COVID-19 which spreads fast in crowded places.
In India, the shutdown was extended for a second time on Friday for another fortnight. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been repeatedly urging people to ensure "Do gaj doori" (six feet distance).
