The speed with which daily cases have grown is truly alarming. Please see data for past 10 days :

All State Govts are fighting shy of imposing a full lockdown or stiff restrictions for fear of incurring public wrath & facing open defiance.
This is where CEOs can step in and help the Govt, the country and thereby all the people.
Please consider shutting down all your operations for a period of 15 days, starting MONDAY, 10 Jan 2002. This should be treated as compulsory, paid LEAVE for all employees (their Leave Balance being debited) and only Maintenance & Essential Services Staff may be permitted to come to work for continuous process Factories or Customer Care Centres etc., and that, too, restricted to the bare minimum.
This will dramatically reduce traffic and crowding in public transport, roads, local bus and train stations.
Similarly, cancel/postpone all travel/tours/businesses meets & conferences for 15 days starting 10th January. This will similarly cut down crowding in long-distance trains, flights & airports and inter-state bus services.
As you well know, the chief carrier & spreader of the virus is "people moving around or coming in close proximity to each other". Both these major causes will greatly reduce if you take the above suggested measures.
It will also give much needed breathing space to the country's health facilities which have already started experiencing the strain of increasing daily cases.
The huge reduction that the above measures will bring about in "people on the streets" will the allow State govts to effectively police & control violations of other public places like markets, malls, streets etc. without having to face "unpopular reaction to lockdown".
Will this badly hit the economy ? No, it will not as it is a planned move for a limited period of 15 days, and there is enough stocks of daily necessities in the pipeline so that people are not inconvenienced.
