COVID-19 has caused many people around the world to stay at home or work from home. Earlier today, we learned that India has imposed a lockdown on 75 districts across the country.
While quarantine and lockdowns help with social distance to limit the spread of the pandemic, working from home can reduce productivity for some people. And BSNL decided to help by launching a perfect plan for those working from home.
The major telco has rolled out a plan called ‘Work@Home’ that gives users a daily data amount of 5 GB at a speed of 10Mbps. In addition, BSNL will offer this plan for free. The new plan will soon be available across all networks in the country, including regions like Nicobar and Andaman.
However, the Work@Home plan is limited to only BSNL users that have a landline connection. The detailed benefits of the plan include 5GB of daily internet data at 10Mbps, and once users use up the limited high-speed data, they will be automatically switched to normal data speed at 1Mbps.
With this move, the telecom provider hopes to encourage more people to stay at home during the COVID-19 pandemic to limit the spread of the coronavirus. The fewer people are outside, the less the coronavirus can transmit from one person to another.
So far, COVID-19 has resulted in 369 confirmed cases and taken 7 lives in India. The country has undergone a day with new 81 confirmed cases, the highest increase since the coronavirus broke out here. The only way to stop the virus from spreading further and wider is by social distancing, which means we need to avoid crowds, avoid going out except for special reasons and always wearing a mask if you have to go out. Also, wash your hands regularly and keep your house clean all the time.
