Dehradun, May 13: Former Uttarakhand chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat on Thursday said that coronavirus is a living organism which has a right to live.
"Seen from a philosophical angle, coronavirus is also a living organism. It has the right to live like the rest of us. But we (humans) think ourselves to be the most intelligent and are out to eliminate it. So it is constantly mutating itself," he told a private news channel here. However, he said man needs to outpace the virus to stay safe.
"Corona virus is a living being and every living creature has a right to live", says BJP leader and Ex Uttarakhand CM Trivendra Singh Rawat.
