3. Seeking an oxygen cylinder for your grandfather on Twitter.
4. Questioning about the money donated to PM Cares Fund.
5. Being a Muslim working in a COVID war room.
6. Making TV shows that ‘offend religious sentiments’.

9. Being a journalist doing their jobs.
10. Students studying in their own college library.
11. Students protecting other students from being assaulted by police.
