On Monday NCP chief said that we need to be prepared for the impact of coronavirus on the country's economy as business activities are suspended.

The former Union minister also requested people to stop unnecessary expenditures and stay home to avoid the spread of the deathly viral infection.

"We should be ready to brace the impact of looming economic crisis over the country as all types of business activities are suspended. People need to do away with their unnecessary spending habit for the next coming weeks as the country's economic situation looks grim, he said.

"I also appeal to people to stay at home and prevent the spread of coronavirus infection. Otherwise, police will have to use force to keep them indoors," he said.
