Talking to Media , Dr Rajeev Boudhankar, CEO-Bhatia Hospital Mumbai expressed worry over the behavior of the people post the easing of the restrictions. "Covid appropriate behavior has been thrown to the winds! Just a look at the traffic, crowded buses or weekend picnic spots gives an indication of the things to come.
