COVID-19 hasn’t yet ended, but many people seem to become reckless. In India, the lockdown has been lifted, but the COVID-19 persists. During the COVID-19 crisis, the Indian Govt. has taken all mandatory steps to spread awareness. From recommending the use of masks and the implementation of social-distancing, the Indian govt has also introduced a ‘Corona Caller Tune’
Yes, we are talking about the caller tune with a person coughing at the beginning of the call. Although the caller tune has been introduced for good, it’s no longer required now. This is because now most people across India know these necessary safety measures to protect themselves from the virus.
People are now finding the Corona Caller Tune irritating as it interrupts & ruins the mood of the person who’s making the call. According to the telecom operators, the Corona caller tune has been removed, but it’s still active in our experience.
