The Chief Justice of Madras High Court A P Sahi has written a letter asking everyone to make sacrifices during these testing times dealing with growing Coronavirus pandemic.
In his letter Justice Sahi took a leaf from the former US President John F. Kennedy to say, Indian should ask not what your country can give you, but what you can give to your country. He also said that this moment poses a challenge that gives us all an enchanting opportunity to face it with courage, determination and enthusiasm to cross an unavoidable part of life forced upon by nature.
Through his letter he conveyed that it is a time where one can serve his own interests and help preserve the interests of others by making small efforts and changing daily habits. He also said that people who are in different professions and must ethically and civilly perform their duties should be respected and applauded as they are those who have risked their lives to ensure that we live.
In his letter he urged, “All of us have to exercise the choice of safety, not to escape, but to discharge a greater duty by distancing from congregations and thereby helping in maintaining a benchmark that can break the ruthless spread of the disease…..A self-imposed quarantine is neither a cage nor a jail, it is freedom from Coronavirus and a real proof of one’s capacity to endure calamities.”
