He reportedly told ANI, “We take all the steps but people still come out on streets. Therefore, this Corona helmet is one of the steps we are taking to ensure that people are aware of the seriousness of the police. The helmet is an attempt to do something different. When I wear this helmet, the thought of Coronavirus comes into the minds of commuters. Especially, the children react strongly after seeing this.”
