Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that social distancing is the most effective way these day and by complying with the lockdown, people are protecting themselves. Sharing his thoughts, PM Modi said, everyone has to protect themselves and their families and for the next many days, they have to abide by the rules. He said, the determination and restraint of each Indian will aid in facing the crisis. Mr Modi said, mankind will have to rise unitedly in the resolve to exterminate this virus which poses a threat to annihilate the human race. The Prime Minister said, in order to battle Corona in a country of 130 crore people, there was no other option but to go for lockdown. PM Modi said, looking at what the world is going through, this was the only way left. He said, the safety of people has to be ensured. He apologized for any inconvenience or hardship caused to the people. PM Modi said, those breaking the rules are playing with their lives. He made it clear that those who do not comply with the lockdown rule should understand that it will be difficult to save ourselves. The Prime Minister said, the world over, many people nursed this delusion and all of them are regretting now.
Narendra Modi said, since the battle against this is unprecedented as well as challenging, the decisions being taken during this time are unheard of, in world history. The Prime Minister said, the steps being taken by Indians to stop the spread of corona and the efforts being made, will ensure that India conquers the pandemic. Mr Modi said, our sympathy for the poor should also be far greater. Our humanity stems from the fact that whenever we see a poor or hungry person, we first try and feed them in this time of crisis. He said, we should think of their needs and India can do it as it is part of its values and culture. The Prime Minister cited an adage which means, an illness and its scourge should be nipped in the bud itself. However, when it becomes incurable its treatment is very difficult. He told that the virus is not confined to any nation's borders, nor does it make distinction of region or season. Modi extended a heartfelt apology to all countrymen and said he strongly feels from the core of his heart that the people will forgive him because he had to take certain decisions may be resulting in myriad hardships. He specially mentioned the underprivileged brothers and sisters and said, he fully understands what they are going through. Citing another adage, he said good health is the greatest fortune and health is the only way to happiness in the world.
The Prime Minister said, in this war, there are many soldiers who are fighting, not in the confines of their homes but outside their homes. He said, these are our front line soldiers especially the brothers and sisters on duty as nurses, doctors and paramedical staff. The Prime Minister said, all these people are persevering to the best extent possible to chase out this scourge. What they tell us is not just for us to listen to, it is to be practiced in life in the truest spirit. Mr Modi said, the sacrifice, perseverance and dedication of doctors remind him of the touching words, the one who strives for his patient’s well being in the spirit of service and compassion, with no desire, monetary or otherwise, is the greatest Doctor. He saluted the embodiment of humanity, the Nurse. The Prime Minister said, the selfless spirit of service with which they perform their duty is beyond compare.
