Abstract

COVID-19 capsulated the whole world in a dangerous loop of death and crippled the transformative capacity of science and technology to save the mankind. Law, once monopolized by man, was soon hijacked by the law of nature and the only remedy available was to draw boundaries (in form of lockdown). Legislative measures, medical facilities, and vaccine drives altogether helped in timely control of COVID-19; however, the world statistical data is evident of the fact that few countries were able to manage COVID-19 very well in contrast to others. It is true that no country was prepared for COVID-19 and neither was India, however, India objectified the interpretation of its existing legislations purposefully to control the spread of COVID-19. The objective of this article is to narrate the best practices adopted by India which helped in timely control of COVID-19 and finally suggest guidelines to control such pandemics in future.
