A child in Delhi set up a board of matchsticks to allow tenants of their apartment building to use the elevator without directly touching the buttons, as a precaution against COVID-19 exposure. <br /><br />The clever innovation was set up in Noida's Gaur Sportswood society building in Sector 79, Delhi. <br /><br />The child, who is in the 8th grade, used household items like toothpicks and matchsticks stuck to a board made from polystyrene sheets and cardboard, that was pasted inside and by the elevator panel. <br /><br />The system allows pasted toothpicks and matchsticks so that people can indirectly press the buttons with the sticks, and dispose of them in a bin pasted nearby.
