Bengaluru: City Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao has warned of initiating legal action against people who click pictures or videos of Corona patients when they are being taken to hospital.
The Commissioner took to his official twitter address the issue and added that the social media and even some of the other news media have shown pictures and videos of Corona patients being taken to hospital.
“This is creating panic among the people nearby and reducing their courage. In addition, it is the invasion of privacy,” said Rao.
