Collateral Gains From A Catastrophe Every catastrophe leaves behind something to cheer, they say. Can the novel corona virus be an exception? The virus is changing the way we live in many respects, even refining some of our inappropriate habits.For instance, while counting currency notes or turning pages of a book, many have the instinct to lick a finger and flick- an unhealthy habit that many of us have developed. It took the virus to put a full stop to this habit. The virus has also added some civic sense inside public washrooms. Loud retching and open spitting and blowing of the nose have been the norms at the washroom sinks. Little do we bother about the discomfort caused to others.Thanks to corona scare, sensible actions are now in place. The railways have removed the curtains from upper class coaches following the Corona virus scare. The curtains are being used to wipe hands, polish shoes and so on. Then think about Namaste. Namaste is regained with its full respect. A Namaste is characterized by humility and honour. To be modern we dumped Namaste and embraced hand shake, fist bump and high five. U.S president Donald Trump has rightly said that India is ahead of the curve in combating the novel Corona virus as they greet with Namaste.Washing hands and feet before entering the room is another healthy habit that is making a comeback. Again it took an evil's knock for it to get back into our lives. Grand weddings have become norms for parents putting all their life savings into ceremonies and even taking loans. The virus scare has set an example for how parties can be conducted in a responsible and reasonable manner.The virus is an enemy of humanity, but if we can learn good things during the pandemic, it will be all good. ബാസില ബിൻത് അലി XII Commerce ജി.എച്ച്.എസ്സ്. പേഴക്കാപ്പിള്ളി മൂവാറ്റുപുഴ ഉപജില്ല എറണാകുളം അക്ഷരവൃക്ഷം പദ്ധതി, 2020 ലേഖനം  സാങ്കേതിക പരിശോധന - Anilkb തീയ്യതി: 27/ 04/ 2020 >> രചനാവിഭാഗം - ലേഖനം
