The government is motivating people through social media to stay at home and suggesting ways to utilise their time by developing new habits and getting rid of bad ones in the wake of the 21-day lockdown enforced to check the spread of coronavirus in the country.

The Twitter handle of PIB India is suggesting ways to users to utilise their time while they are at home during this period.

"The next 21 days, beginning today can be used to cultivate simple new habits, such as waking up early, sticking to a new diet, meditating, etc. #21daylockdown #IndiaFightsCorona," it posted.

In another tweet, it said, "The 21-day trial is not limited to good habits... you can use it to break bad habits as well."
