The world's shortest woman took to the streets in Nagpur, India on Monday, April 13 to call on people to stay at home, after police appealed for help enforcing a coronavirus lockdown.

Jyoti Amge, who is just 62.8 centimeters tall, encouraged people to wash their hands and wear a mask and gloves when they leave their homes as she made appearances across Nagpur city, in Maharashtra state.

India is in a nationwide lockdown since late March, with residents permitted to leave their homes only for essential services such as buying groceries and medicine.

The world's second-most populous nation of 1.3 billion people has reported more than 9,300 coronavirus cases including 324 deaths from the disease. (AFP)
