| On the eve of the 25th of March, when the nation went into lockdown, the Indian Prime Minister delivered a speech at prime time ordering his countrymen to draw a 'Lakshman Rekha' around themselves. I made a short comic for the Indian express about what this 'Lakshman Rekha' is to those we chose to render invisible in our day to day lives. Lockdown or no lockdowm.
