CoShop

Due to the lockdown people were facing severe problems in getting vegetables, fruits, medicine, milk and other essentials. The government offices, specifically the District Municipal Offices made continuous efforts to solve that problem by giving appropriate licenses(curfew passes) to shopkeepers. Hence, they could deliver essentials to home. Many municipal offices were themselves doing region-wise distribution of essentials.

Now with an aim to promote social distancing, majority of municipal corporations are continuing these services. All we, as an informed citizen need to do is to be at home and send our requirement list to those shopkeepers or Municipal POC.

COSHOP is a website and an app based solution(https://coshop.surge.sh/build/web/index.html#/) for the same. All you need is to select your locality and it provides contact details of your local grocery/medical stall or shop which can deliver essentials to your home. Through the app, on a single click you can either send the requirement list on WhatsApp or call the shopkeeper and dictate your requirements.
