Accordingly, setting examples for many others to emulate in this hour of grave crisis due to nationwide lockdown, one Dumsap Dada, a widow from Seppa in East Kameng district, has decided to waive off one month’s rent for two of her shopping complexes which are at present closed due to the nationwide lockdown.
