Crisis of Covid-19 has, if not entirely, but partially changed our living habits more especially habits relating to food consumption. Since moving out from homes is almost controlled due to lockdowns and curfews, you may not take the risk of going out to a restaurant to enjoy breakfast, lunch, or dinner now.

समय को इस सृष्टि की सबसे अनुपम और बलवती वस्तु माना गया है। जब समय यानी वक्त बदलता है तो इंसान को राजा से रंक और रंक से राजा बना देता है। इसके कहर से बड़े-बड़े राजा-महाराजा तक घबराते हैं।

Nations around the world, and for that matter, entire humanity is going through the dreadful impact of COVID-19 syndrome. Challenges thrown by Corona are many and resources are limited.
