As part of the country-wide lockdown to prevent the spread of deadly Coronavirus, the Indian government has introduced specific stringent regulations that have restricted people from stepping out of their homes. In this situation, much to the relief of households in Kerala, several online shopping sites continue to offer their services. They supply essential items like groceries, vegetables and toiletries in several parts of the state.
To make things easier, Kerala Police has also launched a mobile app named ‘ShopsApp’ that acts as a platform to connect consumers and sellers. Shops can register on the app with details of the items they would be home-delivering. Consumers can also register on the app and find the shops that provide home delivery services in their region.
