“The locals will set fire to the Coronasur effigy at the Holika Dahan to get rid of the deadly coronavirus,” reported Times Now.

Apart from ‘Coronasur’, effigies of those accused of carrying out crimes against women will also be burnt on the occasion.

There were a number of effigies erected that showed a woman warrior holding heads of the Nirbhaya convicts giving a social message on the crimes against women.

While the whole world is trying to find a cure for coronavirus, in India people are coming up with bizarre ways of fighting against the virus.

Cow dung, cow urine, yagnas, songs against coronavirus and now Coronasur- there seems as if a few Indias are going to come up with every possible bizarre coronavirus “treatment”.
