She said the nurses are selflessly attending to the patients in this time of crisis.

Today is #InternationalNursesDay. Nurses are playing an important role in our fight against the coronavirus. We salute all those nurses who are selflessly attending to the patients in this time of crisis, putting themselves and their own families at risk, Banerjee tweeted.
