We Indians are well known for our ‘desi jugaads‘. From doing Olympic style pole vaults without the actual pole to chopping onions without crying, we find creative solutions to everyday problems. In fact, during the nationwide lockdown, people have come up with innovative ways to buy essential items without physical contact with others.
Recently, a milkman came up with a unique idea to deliver milk amid the COVID-19 outbreak. Taking all the precautionary measures, the milkman added a desi jugaad to safely deliver milk to his customers, reports News18. The man tied a funnel and pipe to his bike to supply milk while maintaining social distance.
Have a look at the tweet shared by IAS officer Nitin Sangwan :
Good to see that some people go extra mile to keep themselves and others safe.
Let's do basic minimum things of staying at home, wearing mask and keeping social distance even if we cannot go an extra mile like this innovative milkman. pic.twitter.com/RrjYVtdaKW

In the picture, the milkman can be seen standing a few feet away from his customer. Both of them can be seen wearing protective gear. The customer holds a bowl towards the end of the pipe from where the milk comes out, reports Hindustan Times. This technique ensured that all the social distancing protocols were followed.
Many people applauded the milkman’s innovative and effective idea:
Creativity….This is called desi jugaaad.
