To pay tribute to health care workers and all other frontline workers in view of coronavirus pandemic, Indian Coast Guard (ICG) fired flares in air at New Mangalore Port Trust in Panambur, Mangaluru. This was conducted as a mark of gratitude and appreciation for frontline workers fighting COVID-19. This was part of Sunday’s salutation ceremony in which armed forces conducted flypasts and showered flower petals over hospitals across the country to honour COVID-19 warriors.
