How to skip coronavirus alert mobile while calling from Airtel, Vodafone-Idea, Jio and others

The Indian government has ordered all telecom operators to set a 30-second audio clip as a default caller tune for their subscribers. The caller tune aims at spreading awareness about coronavirus and informs users about taking measures to avoid being a victim or spread the deadly disease. The call gets connected only after the 30-second audio clip finishes playing. Users, however, have not been appreciating the fact that the caller tune plays every time they dial a number and causes hindrance in case of emergencies. Jio connects the call while playing the coronavirus awareness alert, unlike Airtel and some other telcos. How to skip the coronavirus caller tune Airtel, Vodafone-Idea, Jio, and other telecom operators: Dial the number.  — Wait for the Caller tune to begin and then tap 1.  — After pressing 1, you will be redirected to the original caller tune as the call connects.  Currently, there is no way to stop the message from repeatedly playing every time you make a call.
