With the nation under lockdown, there are a lot of people struggling to get a square meal, there are also a lot of those stuck in abusive families. During this lockdown, there has been a considerable rise in the cases of domestic violence and the celebrities have come together to urge people to report it in case they come across one. Dealing with Coronavirus has been especially difficult for the government, but they are also making sure that other issues are tackled effectively.
Celebrities and sportspersons like Vidya Balan, Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma, Karan Johar, Farhan Akhtar, Madhuri Dixit, Dia Mirza have come together to demand a Lockdown on Domestic Violence. In the video, the celebs say, “During the lockdown, there has been a sharp increase in the number of domestic violence cases. To all the men, we say, ‘Now is the time to stand up against this violence.’ To all the women, we say, ‘Now is the time to break your silence.' If you are witness to domestic violence in your home, if you are witness to domestic violence in your neighbourhood, report it. If you are a survivor of domestic violence, report it. Let us put a lockdown on domestic violence.”
