New Delhi, Delhi, India | 7th October 2020: As the country is still reeling under the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and trying to keep everyone safe, India seeks scientific technology to keep everyone around safe from the Corona Virus. The fear of contracting the Virus by touching infected surfaces is a challenge that constantly stays on the mind. From opening one’s own car, office or home door to furniture or kitchen surface or even mobiles and laptops, everyone comes in contact with hundreds of items in their daily lives. Losing lives every day and thousands still getting infected, India seeks to protect its citizens from infecting themselves via a touch of any infected surfaces. While the Government does its bit of sanitizing the communities and containment zones, individuals have to safeguard their surroundings by sanitizing surfaces around them. But, sanitizing frequently touched surfaces everyday can be a hard task and is practically infeasible.
